Why do a Running Record/
Record of Oral Reading?
Summarize a reader’s understanding of

Identify student’s strengths and
weaknesses
Identify a reading level
Monitor student’s progress
Pinpoint and make decisions about

Accurate Reading
Accurate reading is recorded with a check
mark for each correct word.
The dog ran down the street.
No Errors
Substitutions
Substitutions are recorded with what the
reader says on top and the correct word on
the bottom.

A line is drawn above what is repeated with the letter
“R” placed at the point where the child stopped to go
back and repeat.
__________ R
The dog ran down the street.
No Error
Self Corrections
Self corrections occur when a previous error is correct. This
is written as SC (self-correction).

No Error
Omissions

Analyzing errors and
Self-corrections
Consider the behavior up to the point of
error
Self-corrections –what did the student
use to automatically correct the error
Analyze errors first and then the selfcorrection
What did the student use:
meaning, syntax or visual information
Sources of information
Meaning/Semantics
◦ Uses pictures or illustrations
◦ Background knowledge
◦ At word, phrase sentence level
Structure/Syntax
◦ Does it sound right/could you say that way
◦ Tense agreement
◦ Story structures
Visual
◦
◦
◦
◦
Does it look right?
Used initial, medial, end
Clusters, chunks
One to one

Data is Key….
You cannot personalize learning
