"The best predictor of reading difficulty in kindergarten or first grade is the inability to segment words and syllables into constituent sound units (phonemic awareness)" This is a 1:1 class where the teacher will administer the PAST assessment. The PAST assessment is a portion of a formal screening I do to assess student's reading in my private practice, and can shed a lot of light as to where your child is developmentally as a reader. Upon registering you are welcome to submit a writing sample for analysis. There is a lot I can see in a student writing sample. I will need this sent via message prior to the start of class. Depending on the student the actual assessment can take as little as 10 minutes. Extra time can be spent introducing some exercises that will benefit students with any level of Phonemic awareness. I will try and set aside the last last 5 minutes or so for the reviewing of scores, and answering questions.
Learning Goals
This assessment will give you a look inside how your child’s mind is manipulating language. Phoneme manipulation is a skill critical to becoming a good reader.
