Literacy Skills Research Compiled By - properly! The following paper
offers a brief overview of the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS), identifying its characteristics, applications, benefits and drawbacks. Description: The DIBELS is a screening tool that identifies
students who are struggling to acquire literacy skills so that they can receive appropriate intervention (Goffreda, et al, 2009). The DIBELS is one of the most frequently used screening tools
and consists of brief standardized measures tailored for accessing the literacy skills of grades K through 3, with additional evaluation instruments for the intermediate grades of 4 through 6 (Goffreda
and DiPerna, 2010). DIBELS focuses on evaluating three crucial literacy domains, which are the students understanding of alphabetic principles; phonological awareness; and fluency (Goffreda and DiPerna, 2010). DIBELS has
five primary indicators, with each one assessing a basic early literacy skill, which are Letter Naming Fluency (LNF), Initial Sound Fluency (ISF); Nonsense Word Fluency (NWF); Phoneme Segmentation Fluency (PSF)
and Oral Reading Fluency (ORF) (Goffreda and DiPerna, 2010). There are also two evaluation measures that have been added to the instrument, which are supplemental. These are Retell Fluency and
