TECH: reading assessment software

Re: software for reading assessment
We just got the STAR program.  It is put out by the same company that does
Accelerated Reader, but you can use one without the other.  It gives
reading level in 10 minutes.  My teachers LOVE it.  It prints out
diagnostic info, parent letter, and more. We are using it 2-5th. We will
add 1st the 2nd half of the year.  If the student is very low it just
registers "pre-primmer" and is not as helpful as higher level results. The
company is called Advantage Learning Systems.  Now, my question: Does
anyone know of a math assessment software?  My teachers are so excited
about STAR, they want the same thing for math!  Also, does anyone need 1st
grade keypals?  One of my 1st grade teachers is asking...
