Word by Word · running record · Form B
Tap a word to mark it. The menu that opens has every mark on it. On a keyboard you need two keys: Space if they read it, X if they did not.
Keys — you only need the first two
- Space read correctly, move on
- X missed it, move on
- Refine the word you just marked
- S self‑corrected R repeated A appealed
- T you told them O skipped it entirely
- Enter type what they actually said (optional)
- and on that menu tag M / S / V — what the child was using when they went wrong (optional). These three are buttons, not keys.
- Getting around
- ← back → forward Backspace undo
- E stopped reading here I added a word
- P pause the clock

The child's copy is the sheet you hand across the table before the read:
this lesson's text in large type, with nothing marked on it. Print gives
you one page for the learning specialist: the marked passage, every
miscue listed, the numbers and your notes. Export writes a spreadsheet of
every saved record. Clear all marks keeps this child and starts the read
over; Start a new record moves on to the next child and leaves this one
saved.
Repetitions and self-corrections are not counted as errors.
Words correct per minute is measured over the whole
passage, not a one-minute timing, so it is not comparable to a DIBELS
benchmark score.
Kept on the teacher's laptop; not stored or sent anywhere.
