NotesThe TPRI consists of of both a screening section and an inventory section. The recommended schedule for the administration of the assessment differs for each grade. In Kindergarten, the screening and inventory sections should be administered at the middle and end of the school year. In Grade 1Ð3, administration of the screening section should take place at the beginning of the school year. The inventory section then may be administered at the beginning, middle, and end of the school year to monitor progress in reading development. Reading First approved. Additional Fluency probes for First, Second, and Third Grade are now available as individual, grade specific kits. The Fluency Probes are a compliment to the fluency section in each TPRI kit. These additional Probes are intended as a quick and easy assessment for more frequent progress monitoring in between the full TPRI assessment schedules.
