I finished off my second week of internship. It was still pretty slow, but I know things will change after the kids are back next week. This week we went over some CBM probes. Next week we will be doing a fluency probe on the entire 2nd grade at one of my sites in order to get some grade level norms to determine who the bottom kids are in order to form intervention groups. The following week we will do the 1st graders but do a nonsense word fluency instead. At this school site it appears that CBM will be one of my daily tasks so by the end of the year I am going to be a CBM master!
So although I know what I will be doing at that site for the next two weeks - I have no idea what I am doing at my other sites next week. It sounds like those sites are used to collecting their own data and the psych then compiles it and runs the stats to feel how the kids are ranked. But other than that, I am uncertain what the psychs other roles are at the school besides writing the occasional 3 year review report. I guess I will just have to wait and see.
