ART (Access Reading Test) Form D

The Wide-Ranging Reading Skills Assessment is an instrument designed for the assessment of key reading skills in children and students requiring literacy evaluation. It helps educators and clinicians identify strengths and weaknesses in reading abilities to better understand learning needs and monitor development over time. This tool provides professional teams with a framework that facilitates screening, baseline evaluation, and progress monitoring and allows them to use parallel forms for quick, reliable repeat testing.

The accompanying book, 2018 Updated Manual, offers comprehensive guidance on administration, scoring, and interpretation to ensure consistent and accurate assessment results.
