One common question that's always asked when talking about the science of reading is, "Where do I start my instruction? What do my students need?" The answer lies in assessments.

The assessments we are using need to be closely linked to our instruction and should be the driving force behind our instruction.
The data from these assessments must answer the questions we have about our students and those questions must drive our instruction. It's absolutely vital that the assessments you're choosing are at the developmental abilities of the students so that the data can reflect their areas of strength and weakness.
We need to be informed of what assessments are out there and how each one can help us in different ways.
