The results of the TERA 3 show that Ethan is either at or above average in the categories of
alphabet, conventions, and meaning for his age. Not only was Ethan able to answer the questions
asked, but he also went as far as to tell me the answers on the page that I didnt ask him. For
example, if asked what letter is this? Ethan was able to say A! And this is D, and E, and H as
well.

Instructional Recommendations and Educational Goals
Although the assessment sows that Etan has met most of his goals a suggestion I have is
to work ore n reading outside of school. Based on prior knowledge I know that over the past
summer Ethan was able to read and identify certain sight words such as was. However, when
completing the assessment Ethan was unable to identify this word. I am confident that if taking
extra time to work on reading and print conventions outside of school Ethan will be fluently
reading in no time.

Communication Plan for Sharing Results with Parents, Teachers, Other Professionals, and
the Student (if appropriate)
To communicate the conclusion I have come up with to Ethans parents and teacher, I
would send them an email of the report in its entirety in case they want to read the entire report. I
would also attach a brief but thorough summary of everything I did as well as how, why, and
what conclusions, including the recommendations and goals, that I have come up with.
