Diagnostics with score comparisons, narrative results and teaching suggestions for on-level and out-of-level testing

Parent reports, group reports and individual reports Scores by hand or with software Scores in percentiles, standard scores, grade equivalents and normal curve

equivalents, stanines and growth scale values Reliable testing and retesting capabilities with spring and fall norms Determines group or individual reading placement Analyzes reading strengths and weaknesses by group or individual Identifies students who need remedial or enrichment programs Determines reading readiness skills Evaluates transfer students quickly Helps with education planning

AGS recognizes that the Memphis City Schools English/Language Arts Curriculum Guide includes areas in Reading, Writing, Speaking, Listening, Viewing, and Representing. For the purpose of this correlation, only Comprehension and Vocabulary under Reading and Listening standards will be included.
