If your child cames home talking about testing, he/she was referring to the MAP and DIBELS assessments. These are initial diagnostic tools for us to see a baseline in reading fluency. We know as proficient readers, it is easier to comprehend complex text if  we can read with fluency and expression. If a child is struggling with reading fluency, we will use other diagnostic tools to see if the fluency deficit is causing issues with other reading skills like comprehension. These assessments are screeners, so your child cannot study for them. If you want your child to improve his/her reading fluency, we recommend reading a "just right" text repeatedly with an emphasis on reading with expression.  DIBELS Parent Guide
