Reading Tracker Online is Research Based, aligned to the Common Core Standards and Built on a Vertical Scale VERTICAL SCALE EXAMPLE:
Here, we can see that Tyrell is reading on target for the 3rd grade level on the Reading Tracker’s vertical scale. On October 31st his reading score is 345. Third grade scores are within the 300 point range. The two charts indicate where Tyrell scores as a third grader and where his score places him on the overall vertical scale. This report indicates that Tyrell is tracking on grade level for this time of year. If his vertical scale score was below 300, the teacher needs to remediate him to increase reading comprehension skills.
