Complimentary Reading Screenings
Extensive evidence shows that struggling readers who do not receive early intervention fall behind academically and it is harder for them to catch up in later grades.
The Acadience Reading Screening
The Acadience Reading Screening provides actionable data and is one of three universal reading screeners in the United States proven to reliably identify students who need immediate reading intervention. This screener assesses the following key competencies, that if in a deficit, put children at risk for reading failure:
- Phoneme segmentation, blending, onset and rime
- Rapid automatic naming, including letter naming fluency
- Letter sound associations
- Phonological memory, including non-word repetition
- Word recognition fluency
- Word Identification
- Oral reading fluency
- Reading comprehension
Register today to reserve your spot with McLean’s K-12 Literacy Coordinator and Instructional Leader, Lisa Emborsky. This 30-minute session will provide an understanding of your child’s reading competency and if it falls above, on, or below their grade level.
Our Complimentary Reading Screenings are for students in kindergarten through grade 3.
