Jordyn is an 11-year-old boy who lives with his mother, stepfather and two younger half-
brothers in Punta Gorda, Florida. He enjoys baseball, swimming, and baking. He has recently
learned how to pitch left-handed. He prefers to be in smaller crowds and small groups and gets
antsy when he encounters large crowds are events. He often does not initiate contact or
communication with individuals that are unfamiliar to him and quickly becomes quiet and more
reserved when placed in those situations.  
He and his family have lived in Punta Gorda for 8 months as they needed to relocate for his
stepfather’s work. He has adjusted to his new school and has made a few friends but missed his
previous school and neighborhood. Jordyn hopes that when he begins to play baseball again on
a team, he will find new connections.  
Currently, he is in 5th grade at Seven Palms Prep. There are 19 students in his homeroom class.
Jordyn learns math, science, and social studies in his homeroom class and goes to a different
classroom in the afternoon for reading and language arts. Jordyn has a good relationship with
both of his teachers but does not ask for help if he is confused or does not understand. His
favorite subject is science and enjoys when his teachers bring in items to support the lessons or
experiments, and he is able to interact with the lessons. Usually, if it is a concept he is
interested in, he will further explore it at home. He also prefers math over reading, as reading
and writing are his least favorite subjects. Most of his writing is simple sentences with a great
deal of grammatical errors and little detail. His reading teacher has recently met with Jordyn’s
mother and stepfather to share concerns for his reading and writing performance.  
His reading teacher has given Jordyn the following diagnostic assessments: Phonics Inventory
and an Informal Reading Inventory. She has monitored his personal reading growth using a
computerized Reading iReady diagnostic and benchmark.  
The Phonics Inventory results suggest Jordyn is in the 81st percentile in identifying sight words.
His ability to read sight words fluently seems to be motivated by timed restrictions. Jordyn’s
phonemic decoding skills reflect that he has an average ability in reading nonsense words using
phonics patterns. He is in the 36th percentile when compared to his age equivalent peers.
Overall, Jordyn appears to have an average ability with emergent reading concepts.  
Subtest  Standard Score  Descriptive Category  Percentile
Sight Word Efficiency   113  High Average   81  
Phonemic Decoding   95  Average   36
Total Word Efficiency   106  Average  65

The results of the Informal Reading Inventory indicate that Jordyn’s fluency impeded his overall
comprehension. His accuracy indicates he often reads with miscues and falls within the low
average range. He scores suggested he has a Grade 3 independent reading level, a Grade 4
instructional reading level and Grade 5 frustration reading level.  He received 11-word
recognition errors (WRE) on his final text within the Informal Reading Inventory.  

Reading Level  Placement   Total Points (Out of 10)/
Word Recognition Errors  
Independent  Grade 3  7 points, 4 WRE
Instructional   Grade 4  5 points, 7 WRE
Frustration   Grade 5  2 points, 11 WRE
Test Administrator Notes: During the silent reading, Jordyn stated he was “done” at a
much faster pace than when reading orally. Generally, he scored fewer points when
reading silently. He had few self- corrections and would insert words, leave off word
endings, and substitute words frequently. When we began, he would pause at some
unknown words and attempt to decode them, however as we continued, he stopped this
practice and would just substitute or guess the word instead without any attempt for
self-correction.  

The results of the Ipsative iReady Diagnostic and benchmark report suggested he is approaching
Grade 4 and has shown growth in the area of phonics, vocabulary, and literary comprehension.
He has shown minimal growth in informational text comprehension.

Each day, the class engages in about 30-40 minutes of whole group reading instruction, 20
minutes of small group reading instruction, 30 minutes of writing workshop, and 10 minutes of
silent reading. They also do 20-30 minutes of daily RtI support in which a reading support staff
comes in and works with two different groups of learners while the reading teacher works with
the rest of the class.  
The teacher has expressed Jordyn does not often participate in whole group instruction but
does participate during his once a week small group meeting. She notices that sometimes he
does not understand the concepts but does not have time to review them all with him and
hopes to cover the more difficult concepts he does not grasp during small groups.   
In addition to reviewing difficult concepts during his weekly small group meeting, his teacher
works on building Jordyn’s fluency by practicing echo reading and rereads. However, she has
noticed minimal improvement with these strategies. She encourages him to practice rereading
to build his fluency but does not check in often to see his progress.  
His reading teacher allows the students to pick a book during silent reading. She has observed
Jordyn flipping through the pages, getting new books, and looking around the room during the
daily silent reading time. She has suggested he pick a book he likes and read it from start to
finish. This was discussed during the parent conference.
His RtI support bases her instruction from the diagnostics taken at the start of the school year.
She instructs him to go on the computer twice weekly for individualized iReady instruction and
works with him the other two days they meet to review phonics skills, vocabulary development,
and strategies for reading informational texts. She provides a weekly record to the classroom
teacher with anecdotal notes for the students she works with in the reading teacher’s mailbox.  
His reading teacher has an upcoming meeting with the Reading Support Team and plans to
bring up Jordyn to ask for strategy support. She plans to share all of his data that she has
collected included diagnostic, ipsative, teacher observations and anecdotal notes provided by
his RTI support and hopes to find answers to supporting his reading growth and development.
