Woodcock Johnson Results Before the WJIII test results are discussed, a brief explanation of scores is offered. In order to find out what scores are high, average, or low, the test is given to a large number of children across the country. The test is always presented in the same way to all children.The subject’s percentile rank indicates the percentage of the children in the norm group who received the same scores or a lower score on the test. A special feature of the WJIII is the option to use either grade- or age-based norms. A grade equivalent reflects the subject’s performance in terms of the grade level in the sample at which the average score is the same as the subject’s score. An age equivalent score is similar to a grade equivalent, except that it reflects performance in terms of the age level in the sample at which the average score is the same as the subject’s score.

Woodcock Johnson An age equivalent score is similar to a grade equivalent, except that it reflects performance in terms of the age level in the sample at which the average score is the same as the subject’s score. It is important to note that this does not mean that the subject is performing at the same level as that grade or age, only that the average score was the same as the sample. The ranges for the WJIII are as follows. High Average = SS 111 to 120 and % Rank 76 to 91 Average = SS 90 to 110 and % Rank 25 to 75 Low Average = SS 80 to 89 and % Rank 9 to 24 Low = SS 70 to 79 and % Rank3 to 8 Very Low = SS 69 and below and % Rank 0.1 to 2

Summary Douglas’ overall performance was in the average range. His strengths are definitely in math and written expression, which are reflected in his scores. His greatest strength was in written expression followed by math calculations. He enjoys doing math problems involving addition and subtraction. He continues to struggle with identifying money, counting money, and telling time. He is below average in reading fluency, applied problems, and spelling. His letter word identification and comprehension were with in the average range. His comprehension is much better when a story or passage is read to him. He listens and can pick up on some details, especially when the story is of interest to him. I believe with continued assistance and direct instruction he will make gains. He would greatly benefit from phonics instruction because he struggles blending and segmenting sounds. In addition, continuing with the curriculum based measurements weekly will also be beneficial to him and help to increase his reading fluency. This will also provide additional information to the teacher to know how to help him.
