NEW AND NOTEWORTHY UPDATES

mCLASS DIBELS 8th Edition, mCLASS Lectura, and mCLASS Intervention!

mCLASS® DIBELS® 8th Edition, mCLASS® Lectura, and mCLASS® Intervention are introducing enhancements for the next school year. Explore the following improvements designed to save you time, extend your reach, and support your efforts to deliver the learning experiences your students deserve.

Updates

mCLASS DIBELS 8th Edition expands to support grades 7–8.

This expansion supports a full K–8 literacy model (alongside Amplify ELA), to help you identify where both elementary and middle school students need support and guide you on the next steps. With mCLASS DIBELS 8th Edition for grades 7–8, you can support middle school students with reading fundamentals, monitor progress for grade-level and below-grade-level skills, and find instructional guidance based on best practices for middle school.

mCLASS Lectura update: phonemic awareness measure option for Kindergarten and grade 1

Fluidez en la segmentación de fonemas (FSF) will be added to mCLASS Lectura as an optional measure for Kindergarten and grade 1. FSF is a standardized, individually-administered phonemic awareness assessment that measures students’ ability to fluently segment words, a skill which is predictive of Spanish reading proficiency and is also transferable to support the development of English phonemic awareness.

*FSF does not impact the overall mCLASS Lectura Composite Score.
