Overall Satisfaction with Renaissance Star Assessments
We use Renaissance Star Assessments initially to measure our students' reading levels. Then, about every 6 weeks, students retake the test to measure growth in their reading levels. Our district uses Renaissance Star Assessments in grades K-5th. We align our library and in-class library to match the AR levels from the Renaissance Star Assessments tests.
- Assessing students' reading levels
- Assigning students to reading levels
- Leveling and up down--it is a "smart" test
- Reading questions to beginning readers
- I don't know what to do with the Star Early Literacy Test information
- Have a break in the middle--about question 15. The test is 33 questions.
- I wish every AR test could be read to students.
- smart test feature
- Renaissance Star Assessments Early Literacy provides an option for non-readers
- reports for teacher and parents
- immeasurable. We would not know what level books our students should read without it.
- After a 2nd and 3rd assessments, students and teachers alike get excited about seeing the growth
Accelerated Reader goes hand-in hand with Renaissance Star Assessments assessments. The program dovetail into each other. The Renaissance Star Assessments informs the student, parent, and teacher what level a child is reading and appropriate materials can be used that are in a child's reading level. Since COVID, student reading levels are down. A lower leveling of the test would be amazing and get students reading AR books sooner in their academic careers.
