Normed
Time: 10 minutes
The Test of Silent Contextual Reading Fluency assesses the silent reading ability of students. Classroom teachers, special education teachers, reading specialists, school psychologists, speech pathologists, or other personnel trained in standardized test administration can use the TOSCRF as an efficient and cost-effective screening tool.
The TOSCRF uses word identification, word meaning, word building, sentence structure, comprehension, and fluency to measure a student’s ability to recognize words accurately and efficiently. Students read short passages comprised of contextually related words, ordered by reading difficulty, all in uppercase letters without any spaces or punctuation in between the words (e.g., AYELLOWBIRDWITHBLUEWINGS). Students draw a line between the boundaries of as many recognizable words as possible within three minutes. The passages become more complex in content, vocabulary, and grammar.
The TOSCRF identifies both poor and good readers and aids in monitoring student progress. Administer the TOSCRF with individuals or in a group.
