Teaching with Intention Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Assessment System A Two-Part Series – Gr K-8 **IN PERSON** presented by Kristina Seeley – 8:30-2:30pm

PART 1: Administering the Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Assessment System In Part 1, we will focus on administering The Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Assessment which provides teachers with precise tools and texts to observe and quantify specific reading behaviors. This workshop includes specific tutorials that provide ample practice to administer the assessment with fidelity, following guidelines that minimize administrative discrepancies. Afterward, you’ll feel confident assessing level A-Z! PART 2: Analyzing the Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Assessment and Using it to Inform Instruction In Part 2, we focus on the fact that results drive instruction. Educators will discover practical ways to organize your data and a series of strategic action steps and goals that, when used effectively, provide positive, incremental shifts in your literacy instruction. This will lead to confident readers and improved results. We will look at Fountas and Pinnell Guided Reading Sets (part of Fountas and Pinnell Classroom) as an example of powerful resources that can link the data to instruction. These tools help teachers shift reading behaviors with their students and lift students’ level of thinking as they read. However, you can easily apply this workshop to any curriculum you are using, and you do not need the Fountas and Pinnell Guided Reading sets to attend the workshop.
