SDQA - San Diego Quick Assessment is a word decoding/recognition test that is free to print and use - just google it. It gives you a really quick and dirty grade approximation which I have found to be amazingly accurate given it's limitations. Once you're in the ballpark, and especially if you have concerns, I like the QRI or CRI as you can analyze it to obtain diagnostic information as well as grade-level placement. And they're not too expensive to purchase - under $100 anyway. I'm assuming you are in a grade level where the kids should be reading already...
