7. Kindergarten Baseline Reading Data
First Sound Fluency (FSF)
FSF assesses phonemic awareness . During this 1 minute assessment, the evaluator says a word aloud and the student has to identify just the first sound of each word. Fall Baseline Target: 10

8. Instructional Decision Making and Progress Monitoring

9. First Grade Baseline Reading Data
Phonemic Segmentation Fluency(PSF)
PSF assesses the ability to hear and segment sounds. During this 1 minute assessment, the evaluator says the word and the student has to isolate each sound. Fall Baseline Target: 35

10. First Grade Baseline Reading Data
Nonsense Word Fluency(NWF)
NWF assesses letter/sound correspondence. During this 1 minute assessment, the evaluator points to the “make-believe” word and the student has to either say each sound in the word or the “nonsense” word. Fall Baseline Target: 27

11. Instructional Decision Making and Progress Monitoring

12. Intervention Strategies in Addition to Core Reading Instruction
Kindergarten:
Daily small group instruction for 20 minutes with Title Para and RtI Teacher using Road to the Code materials

OCM assesses early numeracy. During this 1 minute assessment, students rote count orally without a visual number chart for assistance. Fall Baseline Target: 65

20. Kindergarten Baseline Math Data
Number Identification Measure (NIM)
NIM assesses early numeracy. During this 1 minute assessment, students are given a row of random numbers to 10 and have to identify each number. Fall Baseline Target: 22

21. First Grade Baseline Math Data
Number Identification Measure (NIM)
NIM assesses early numeracy. During this 1 minute assessment, students are given a row of random numbers to 10 and have to identify each number. Fall Baseline Target: 36

22. Kindergarten Baseline Math Data
