Reliable, Research-Based Assessment
Solutions to Support Reading and Math
Grades K–8
Powerful and Insightful Assessment Solutions
Acadience® offers universal benchmark screening assessments and progress-monitoring solutions for reading preK–8 and math K–6. Acadience provides educators with assessment tools to support data-driven instructional decisions, monitor the effectiveness of instruction, and improve student outcomes.
A Comprehensive Suite of Assessments
Every student learns differently. With the right tools to help identify which students need extra support, every student can succeed.
These solutions feature quick, reliable, and valid measures for all students that indicate if they are on track for reading and math success and help pinpoint where they are struggling.
Efficiently Supports the Outcomes-Driven Model
With an Outcomes-Driven Model:
- Data are used to make instructional decisions based on student need
- Educators are empowered to make data-based decisions consistent with the Response to Intervention (RtI) and Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) framework
- Data is used to target instruction and improve student outcomes
Powerful Assessment Authored by Renowned Researchers
For more than 25 years, Dr. Roland Good III, and Dr. Ruth Kaminski* have committed their careers to creating assessments and tools that help educators improve outcomes for students and schools. The Acadience suite is a culmination of ongoing research and development with consistent and renowned researchers.
*Drs. Good and Kaminski are not associated with any new measures under the DIBELS name, such as DIBELS 8th Edition.

Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) offer the framework for implementing the science of reading. Improving reading outcomes for all students requires building leaders who create the right conditions for learning, including designing systems for data-based decision-making, assessment, scheduling, and grouping.
Watch as our experts share how and why reading outcomes improved in a high-needs elementary school through the alignment of instructional systems and student data.
In this podcast, Dr. Ruth Kaminski, coauthor of Acadience Reading K–6 and other respected assessments, will discuss the many aspects of assessment that make it a meaningful and essential tool for preventing reading disabilities and promoting reading success.
Dr. Kaminski discusses the reasons educators should rely upon assessment for curriculum alignment, progress monitoring, and classroom planning.
In this webinar, Dr. Ruth Kaminski, co-author of Acadience Reading K–6 (formerly known as DIBELS), discusses what we know about the prevention of reading failure. She shares practical advice about methods to prevent reading failure, all of which are grounded in the science of reading, with an emphasis on the role of assessment.
Watch to become familiar with a prevention-oriented model of reading disability, learn practical strategies for preventing reading disabilities, and understand the critical role of assessment in the prevention of reading disabilities.
