[LIT] dibbles assessment

[Jason DeLuca]

I am a fourth grade teacher.  My principal is very concerned with using research based instruction, as he should be, however he is having us assess our kids' fluency by using dibbles.  The staff is very angry because many believe that this particular assessment does not measure much at all.  Does anyone know of any research that either supports or does not support the use of this assessment?
   
  Thanks,
  Jason
