  1. A teacher wants to post a chart of each student's oral reading fluency scores, with names, on the classroom wall to motivate the class. What is the most appropriate professional response?

    Answer: Keep individual scores private and share them only with students, families, and authorized staff

    Individual assessment results are confidential education records under FERPA and should not be displayed publicly.

  2. Under FERPA, which person generally has the right to review a 3rd grader's reading assessment records?

    Answer: The student's parent or guardian

    FERPA gives parents of minor students the right to inspect and review their child's education records.

  3. Wisconsin 2023 Act 20 changed early literacy instruction. Which practice does it prohibit in K-3 reading instruction?

    Answer: Three-cueing approaches that teach students to guess words from pictures or context

    Act 20 bars the three-cueing system, which encourages guessing rather than decoding.

  4. A reading specialist notices that a colleague is giving students extra time and reading test items aloud on a standardized reading assessment that does not allow it. What is the best first step?

    Answer: Follow district test-security procedures and report it to the test coordinator or administrator

    Test irregularities must be reported through the district's established test-security procedures.

  5. A teacher's universal screening shows a kindergartner is at risk for reading difficulty. What is the most ethical next step?

    Answer: Notify the family and begin targeted, evidence-based intervention with progress monitoring

    Early identification should lead promptly to family communication and evidence-based intervention with monitoring.

  6. Which choice best reflects using reading assessment data ethically?

    Answer: Using multiple data sources to guide instruction and decisions

    Sound educational decisions draw on multiple valid data sources rather than one score.

  7. A teacher selects a commercial reading program because the publisher gave her a free vacation. What ethical principle is violated?

    Answer: Avoiding conflicts of interest in instructional decisions

    Accepting personal gifts that influence curriculum choices is a conflict of interest.
