Abstract: The Basic Reading Inventory, one method of evaluating reading performance and developing reading strategy, is an individually administered, informal reading test composed of a series of word lists and graded paragraphs which the child reads aloud to the teacher. Comprehension questions follow the reading of each paragraph. This manual explains the purposes of the inventory, gives directions for scoring and administering it, and provides concrete assistance for interpreting test findings so that the results can be used to enhance reading instruction. Appendixes contain three forms of the inventory, aids for summarizing results, strategies for improving reading, and sources for further information. (JM)
