ECHOS™ is an ongoing, embedded assessment or an observational

assessment that is a natural part of the ongoing activity in the classroom.

FLKRS/ECHOS™ Overview What is the ECHOS™?

34

FLKRS/ECHOS™ Overview How is the ECHOS™ administered?

Teachers observe students to determine what they

know and are able to do and record their

observations (on the FLKRS Class Record Form).

35

FLKRS/ECHOS™ Overview Administration Requirements

ECHOS™ should be completed by a teacher, trained in its administration.

Kindergarten teachers may NOT administer the ECHOS™ to students

they taught in VPK.

36

FLKRS/ECHOS™ Overview Administration Accommodations

For students with disabilities and English Language Learners

(ELLs), a flexible setting that is quieter than the regular classroom

should be considered.

37

FLKRS/ECHOS™ Overview Frequency of Demonstration

The behaviors and skills prescribed in each benchmark need to be observed only once

for the appropriate indicator to be entered.

38

FLKRS/ECHOS™ Overview Planning for Observations

Remember the behaviors and skills you want to observe.

Observe the behaviors in context.Incidental observationsPlanned observations
