    The document provides instructions for administering and scoring the Nonsense Word Test. The test involves having students read a list of made-up nonsense words to assess their decoding abilities. To administer the test, the instructor makes copies of the nonsense words and has each student read through the list while marking their correct pronunciations. Their performance is then scored by counting the number read correctly and analyzing error patterns to identify strengths and weaknesses in sound-spelling relationships.

    The Nonsense Word Test

    Preparing the Test


    Type or print the test and make a copy to record the student’s responses.

    Administering the Test


    Administer the test to one student at a time.

    Explain to the student that she is to read each word. Point out that the
    words are nonsense, or made-up, words.

    As the student reads the entire list, put a check mark on the answer sheet
    beside each word she reads correctly. (The word is correct if the student’s
    pronunciation is correct according to common sound-spelling relationships.)

    Scoring the Test

    Teaching Phonics & Word Study in the Intermediate Grades • Scholastic Professional Books
    Total the number of words the student read correctly. Analyze the mispro-
    nounced words, looking for patterns that might give you information about
    the student’s decoding strengths and weaknesses.

    Focus future instruction on those sound-spelling relationship categories


    (short vowels, long vowels, etc.) in which the student made three or more
    errors.
