Supportive Materials for ELORS |
There are many reasons why children undergo assessments in school: the desire to know if they are making progress academically, if they are meeting proficiency benchmarks, and if they are being taught effectively. The following materials will provide additional background information about the Early Learning and Observation Rating Scale (ELORS) and its usage.
- Definitions of Domains
Learn more about the seven domains of learning the ELORS screening tool evaluates; ten observable skills and behaviors are outlined for each domain.
- Assessment in Early Childhood
Learn about the principles that guide practice to promote quality early childhood education, such as universal screening, progress monitoring, why it’s important to conduct observations in naturalistic settings, and how to determine which children might be struggling with learning.
- ELORS and RTI
Learn how the ELORS can be used within a response-to-intervention (RtI) framework. ELORS can be used across all tiers within an RtI framework.
- Teacher’s Guide
While all key information about ELORS is available on the Get Ready to Read! site, the complete manual is also available as a downloadable PDF.

Suggested Tip!
Be Ready for Reading
Bring a book to your child’s next doctor’s appointment to ease the wait. And, leave a book where you keep your reusable shopping bags to make the shopping cart a rolling reading room
