Comprehension Assessment Reading test
I use the CARS pre-test as a way to identify strategies that my students are lacking at the beginning of the year. Once these strategies have been identified and the 5 pre-test for their grade level is complete I will have students review the skills they scored a 2, 1 or 0. Students will use this data sheet tor reflect on these skills and what they can work on for the school year.
