A System for Assessing Reading Accommodations!

PAR provides you with all you need to systematize your procedures for making data-based reading accommodation recommendations for students! Developed by Denise DeCoste, author of the widely embraced Developing A Writing Productivity Profile, and Linda Bastiani Wilson. Using PAR, you’ll not only have concrete documentation for IEP meetings, but also you’ll be able to make appropriate decisions about suitable reading accommodations that are based on evidence-based practices.

What’s Included:

 

Protocol—guides you in collecting data to compare independent reading, reading with a human reader and reading with a text reader

Reading Samples—provides eight reading passages (four narrative, four expository) and vocabulary questions for each grade level, grades 3rd through 10th

Quizzes—contains comprehension quizzes for each reading passage—factual, topic-related, inferential and vocabulary

Multiple Formats—reading passages are available in Word, HTML and ePUB so that you can use them in Bookstream (Don Johnston’s cloud-based reading distribution system) or within your current text reader
