What is the appropriate number of times to administer DRA2?
In general, DRA2 is given twice a year (fall and spring) to provide teachers with information to guide instruction. There is always the option to administer the assessment more frequently. Often times, the assessment is administered at midyear to identify the needs or skills of students who are challenged readers. It is also given midyear, in some cases, to monitor student progress and provide more instructional guidance.
