FLORA<\/a><\/strong> (FLuent Oral Reading Assessment): \u00a0 \u00a0FLORA is a program that automatically assesses students\u2019 oral reading fluency, the most efficient and predictive measure of children\u2019s reading proficiency. \u00a0 It addresses school districts\u2019 and individual teachers\u2019 needs to screen students each school year to identify students that require interventions, and the need to monitor progress in response to interventions. Elementary school teachers across the U.S. spend up to 6 days each school year assessing students\u2019 reading proficiency. FLORA is the only automatically assesses students\u2019 oral reading fluency.<\/p>\n
