PASEC: Distribution of 2nd grade students by average number of words read accurately in one minute. 1 to 5 Words
Percentage of 2nd grade students who accurately read 1 to 5 words within one minute. The exercise requires pupils to read isolated, familiar and mostly irregular words to determine which pupils have developed sufficient written language decoding skills to adopt a lexical approach to reading. Pupils have up to five seconds to read each word; This time limit ensures that students are not decoding words through the sub-lexical assembly process. Data were published for this indicator beginning with PASEC 2014. Consult the PASEC website for more detailed information: http://www.pasec.confemen.org/
