Early Literacy
2-day Seminar
The Emergent Reading Assessment (ERA)
by David Matteson

   The Emergent Reading Assessment (ERA) developed by David Matteson
   is especially designed to capture what 3-5 year old children know about
   reading and provide insights for instruction.

   This easy-to-use assessment package helps teachers measure book-handling
   skills (print concepts) and the understandings of story concepts, and helps
   teachers jumpstart reading instruction appropriate for this age group. The ERA
   is an excellent precursor to Marie Clay’s Concepts About Print (CAP) and
   Joetta Beaver’s Developmental Reading Assessment (DRA).

   The focus on quality literacy instruction and accountability for even the youngest
   learners at the preschool and kindergarten levels makes this a necessary tool
   for:
       ● schools who want to expand their capacity to increase student achievement;
       ● educators of children age 3-5; ● administrators for such programs; ● early
       childhood education programs at universities/colleges; ● ECE state departments;
       ● Head Start and Even Start

    District-wide and school-wide adoption of the Emergent Reading
    Assessment provides a strong base for assessing 3-5 year old children
    and identifying clear next steps for students on a successful literacy
    continuum.
