History of the PAR
Developed out of 30 years of NIH-funded research designed to gain a better understanding of literacy development How it unfolds in typical readers How early intervention can ameliorate later
difficulties

The National Reading Panel’s 2000 report,
Put Reading First Commissioned out of concern for the
growing illiteracy rate in our country
A panel of research experts analyzed hundreds of literacy studies (a meta-analysis)
Their assessment of the research literature on reading and its implications for reading instruction

Their Findings
Research Supports Five Essential Components of Reading Instruction: Phonemic Awareness Phonics Vocabulary Fluency Comprehension
![Page 7: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Phonemic Awareness
A child’s ability to recognize that spoken words are made up of individual speech sounds (phonemes) and that child can hear, count, and manipulate those sounds.
![Page 8: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Listening for Sounds
![Page 9: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Phonics
Understanding that there is a predictable relationship between speech sounds in our spoken language (phonemes) and the letters which represent them (graphemes). Often referred to as the “alphabetic principle”
Phonics instruction must be taught Systematically (easiest concepts to harder) Explicitly (to mastery) Should begin no later than Kindergarten

Sounds and Symbols
![Page 11: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Vocabulary
Development of stored information about the meaning and pronunciation of words
Developed indirectly through oral language and listening to enriched text read aloud
Developed directly through explicit and specific teaching of word meanings in context, dictionary skills, familiarity with word parts

Fluency
The ability to read text accurately, quickly, and with prosody. Studies demonstrate that practice and repetition leads to automaticity.
Activities for improving fluency include: Monitored, repeated oral reading practice Student-adult paired reading Choral reading Taped practice Timed drills

Repeated Stories and Singing

Comprehension
The ultimate goal of reading. The following strategies have a firm scientific basis for improving text comprehension: Teaching students to question, predict, self-
monitor as they read The use of graphic organizers Teaching story structure Summarizing and visualization strategies

Expressing What We Know
![Page 17: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Understanding
![Page 18: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Why the PAR?
Now that research can better shed light on how literacy develops, rather than waiting for children to fail, what can be done to: Predict a child’s future reading outcome Change the course of that outcome through
focused, preventative instruction
![Page 19: THE PREDICTIVE ASSESSMENT OF READING (PAR) February 11, 2013 Carrie Malloy & Julie Smith](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e2b5503460f94b1a062/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What is the PAR?
The PAR is not an academic achievement test, but rather an early screening tool developed to assess a child’s skill on basic underlying processing skills which support literacy. These include:
Phonological Awareness Letter Identification and High Frequency Single Word
Reading Rapid Naming (a measure of fluency/word retrieval) Vocabulary
It is able to predict a kindergartener’s eighth grade reading ability with 97% accuracy.

What Can the PAR Tell Us About a Child?
Its results can: Uncover patterns of uneven skill
development Identify early literacy and pre-literacy
strengths and weaknesses Provide insight regarding critical pre-
reading skills, which can be supported or bolstered to change the course of a child’s future literacy outcome
