In this technical report, we describe the development and piloting of reading comprehension measures as part of a comprehensive progress monitoring literacy assessment system developed in 2006 for use with students in Kindergarten through fifth grade (Alonzo, Tindal, Ulmer, & Glasgow, 2006). We begin with a brief overview of the two conceptual frameworks underlying the assessment system: progress monitoring and developmental theories of reading. We then provide context for how the comprehension measures fit into the full assessment system. Additional technical reports provide similar information about measures of early literacy (Alonzo & Tindal, 2007a) and fluency (Alonzo & Tindal, 2007b)
