The Umbrella
I chose to create an Umbrella because I saw chapter 3 and content area assessments as an umbrella term for all of the various tests, assessments, and data collections that are beneficial to our students and can determine an estimated reading level for our students.
Under my umbrella I've created raindrops that contain, the cloze test, leveled texts, running record data, the "off-track" children, (that somewhere they seemed to get off track in their reading abilities ), Lexile measurement, readability, teacher-self assessment, and most importantly to me - my students background knowledge or their "virtual backpack."
Additional credits go to Mother Nature - for raining today!
