Abstract: A method and system for identifying a set of students who have encountered reading difficulty and are performing below grade level and intervening to prevent illiteracy and achieving grade-level literacy of struggling students. Standardized oral fluency assessments are administered for a predetermined set of at least one student in a database in a computer system. Results from the standardized oral fluency assessments are recorded for each student of the predetermined set in a database in a computer system. A standardized predictive measure of literacy is calculated on the computer system for each student, wherein the standardized predictive measure of literacy is a composite of the results stored in the database for each student. Struggling members of the predetermined set are identified based on each standardized predictive measure of literacy. An individual report for each struggling member is presented on a visual medium in communication with the computer system.
