PM Benchmark Reading Assessment Resources

Each PM Benchmark Kit contains:

  • 46 levelled fiction and non-fiction texts: which range from emergent levels to reading age 12
  • Teacher’s Resource Book & CD: includes helpful information on how to use each component of the resource. 
  • Modelled Assessments DVD: contains frequently asked questions and professional development videos to assist teachers in effectively assessing students’ reading levels
