Assessment: Short Vowels in Reading and Spelling

This assessment serves as a quick “check in” to see if students understand the skill before moving on. Checking in regularly, rather than waiting until the end of a quarter to assess, allows you to see if your instruction is effective or if something needs to be altered for the student.
