Class Experience
US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 3
I will use leveled books to assess your child's reading level. I will also provide a conversion chart to help you find books on your child's level. I will offer a few observations about your child's strengths and weaknesses. This is the perfect assessment if you just want to know your child's reading level, how to find books on their level, and some suggestions on how to help them grow as readers. If you want a more in-depth assessment, I have another class that looks at reading and writing patterns and provides a more detailed assessment. This is a class for beginning readers and more advanced readers at the Elementary level.
