We have been using the DRA2 to pre and post test all our students. With the initiation of RTI, there is some discussion as to having the DRA2 be an assessment for Tier 2 only. Which means that we as classroom teachers would need to find something else to use as literacy assessment. I am wondering two things: what are other districts using as a Tier 2 assessment for RTI, and what are other districts using for pre and post literacy assessments. We want to make sure that no matter what we use that it will provide us with a complete look at the literacy strengths and weaknesses of students that will guide our instruction and support the reading strategies of Mosaic and reader's workshop format.
