This is a revised and re-normed version of the original South Australian Spelling Test, along with a completely new, normed Form B to be used as an alternative or parallel to Form A of the South Australian Spelling Test. For more information, read our Dyslexia Screening and DIBELS 8th Edition White Paper. Teachers read a list of 70 words to students, who record a written response. DIBELS subtests offer efficient and cost-effective measures of processing speed, phonological awareness, and the alphabetic principle for dyslexia screening purposes. DIBELS forms now have items that progress in difficulty beyond risk cut-points that provide data teachers can use in planning instruction for all students. Maze is now offered for second grade, nonsense word fluency has been extended to third grade and includes advanced phonics patterns, and oral reading fluency and maze have been extended through eighth grade. DIBELS now offers a word reading fluency measure that can help to identify students with poor sight word and irregular word reading skills that other subtests miss. DIBELS now includes word reading fluency and existing subtests have undergone extensive improvement efforts to maximize their usefulness. DIBELS composite scores has been overhauled to make them better than ever at predicting risk. Subtests relevant to a given grade are offered at every benchmark period. DIBELS can be used from kindergarten through eighth grade. In fact, DIBELS 8th Edition is more useful for more students in more grades than ever before. DIBELS 8th Edition has a lot to offer that no other curriculum-based measurement (CBM) system ever has before.
