Hello all, need some help! Recently our school switched over to IRLA reading assessment system when they used to do DRA. DS 4th grade was always way ahead with DRA . Now apparently with IRLA there is some pretty rigid read aloud fluency tests which is holding him back . It's almost like he is regressing . He does super well on all other aspects of the test (vocab, Latin roots, comprehension, etc) . He says reading in his head is no problem but he is struggling reading aloud. Should the reading aloud be a reason to make him read books (that he is reading silently at independent reading time, btw) below his true level? I'm not sure that is s good or helpful idea but that's what teacher is seeking to do. Also, what can he do remediate the issue? He has dyspraxia and dysgraphia , is that a cause/factor?
