Whats the difference between the Screening Section of the TPRI and the Inventory Section?
The Screening Section of the TPRI is a brief assessment designed to identify students who are most at risk for reading difficulties. Its primary purpose is to predict for teachers which of their students may need additional or intensive reading instruction in order to meet grade level goals. The Inventory Section is a diagnostic tool that provides information about students’ specific strengths and challenges as readers. It gives teachers information about the specific instructional needs of their students so that they can match their teaching with these specific needs.
