7. Assessments for Irregularly Spelled High-Frequency Words

Irregularly Spelled High-Frequency Words Skill Explainer

Build Your Own Reading Assessment

If you're assessing for reading, you can build this assessment with a list of irregular words that you have explicitly taught and listen to students read each word aloud. This assessment must be done one-on-one so you can accurately record which words each student has mastered.

Reading Universe is made possible by generous support from Jim & Donna Barksdale; the Hastings/Quillin Fund, an advised fund of the Silicon Valley Community Foundation (opens in new window); the AFT (opens in new window); the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation (opens in new window); and three anonymous donors.
