When considering next steps to oral readig fluency screeners...

Jan Hasbrouck shared, “A fluency-based screener can be viewed as similar to the temperature reading that a physician obtains from a thermometer when assisting a patient. A thermometer – like a fluency-based measure – is recognized as a tool that provides valid (relevant useful and important) and reliable (accurate information) very quickly. However, as important as a temperature reading is to a physician, it is only a single indicator of general health or illness.”
