Group Reading Assessment & Diagnostic Evaluation

GRADE

GRADE provides educators with a diagnostic, group-administered test that measures reading competency in the core areas of word reading, sentence comprehension, word meaning, passage comprehension, vocabulary, and listening comprehension for children, adolescents, and adults. An online edition is available starting at Grade 2, and the GRADE Resource Library provides stimulating activities, worksheets, and book lists to help provide targeted instructional interventions—linked to the assessment—at any level. GRADE and GRADE Online are the most current versions of GRADE. See our Guidance on using this assessment remotely.
