Meets Reading First Standards
Today’s most progressive and powerful resource for promoting literacy, DIBELS are quick and reliable assessments that predict reading success. DIBELS screenings take just minutes to administer and provide immediate results to guide small-group, intensive, or individualized instruction.
Students from kindergarten through third grade receive Benchmark Assessments three times a year that measure the critical areas of early reading: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary. Students in fourth through sixth grades receive Benchmark Assessments in the areas of fluency and comprehension.
DIBELS is research-based enabling you to make informed decisions about the effectiveness of curriculum, additional instructional support, and ongoing strategies for improving literacy skills and reading outcomes at the classroom, school, and district levels.
