Elementary Tip: Renae Bixenman
There’s an App for that!!
Running Records are a fantastic way to assess individual student reading levels. I don’t know how you organize your assessments, but I always had multiple copies of each leveled assessment in a big binder that took up a lot of space!!
I recently came across an app on the Facebook page Technology Erintergration that I think would be beneficial to those of you that use Running Records to assess reading levels. The app is “Record of Reading” and it allows you to do your Running Records digitally. One of the features that I also like is the ability to record the student as they are reading. Great to play back for parents during conferences!! It also allows you to become more of a “paper free” classroom. The app is free and available for the iPads only. You can save, and file a student’s records for the year and access easily. I gave it a try on my own child and found it to be both user friendly and convenient!! If you are interested and would like me to demonstrate the app just let me know.
