Efficient, Reliable Diagnostic Reading Tools
Acadience® Reading Diagnostic solutions, previously published as DIBELS® Deep, are advanced assessment tools for K–6 students who have not yet reached their grade-level benchmark goals or for students who may have met some benchmark goals but are struggling with essential skills.
