Star Lectura is a customized reading test for students to take on a computer. The test is designed for students in grades 1 through 12. (Note: Star Lectura has only been normed for students in grades 1 through 8. For more information, see the "Norming" chapter of Star Lectura Technical Documentation.) Teachers can use test scores to determine the reading level of Spanish-speaking students and to measure growth.
What Is a Star Lectura Class?
Certain Star Lectura features only apply to students who are enrolled in a Star Lectura class.
So, what makes a class a Star Lectura class?
Adding courses, adding classes, assigning products to classes, assigning teachers to classes, and enrolling students in classes are all tasks that are done in Renaissance. Usually, these tasks are done by an administrator (by default, teachers cannot perform these tasks).
When you assign teachers to classes, you are allowed to choose which Renaissance programs are used by that class/teacher and the role of the teacher in that class. Selecting Star Lectura as one of the programs makes the class a Star Reading Spanish class.
