Is language the only difference between the TPRI and Tejas LEE?
Significant differences, beyond the language of administration, exist between the instruments. The most important is that the two instruments do not assess exactly the same set of reading skills. The Tejas LEE attempts to capture significant skills and steps in the development of Spanish reading. Therefore, the Tejas LEE is not simply a translation of the TPRI. Results from the Tejas LEE should only be used to examine a student’s performance in Spanish and to plan Spanish reading instruction. The two instruments follow similar administration schedules to allow for both instructional planning and the documentation of student progress
