I did an assessment using Whales and Fish with a 5 year old 1st grade boy.
In doing this exercise I noticed that not everything can be interpreted to paper. While he ended up getting most of the words correct, it was a slow process, and he seemed to struggle. So while he had a high score I would keep him at the current reading level, the issues seemed to stem from fluency, so exposure to more words and encouraging more guided reading would help him.
