Montana’s Miscellaneous Methods –
This was a great resource to use for my first session of tutoring to gather data on a students abilities. However, on the Spelling Analysis Tool it was a bit confusing that you need both recording sheets to record data. Also, #8 is “chime” on one page and “chase” on the second page. Overall, a great resource and will be using it more in the future!
