📊 As an educational therapist, I use these screeners to see how students think through decoding and spelling—giving me clear insight into strengths, challenges, and next steps for instruction.
–> Developed FOR and WITH students!
These materials evolved and were tested with students. There may be more than one answer from the pictures – that’s okay! See what they think, and then layer in other optionand answers through dictation and discussion.
–> Spelling Errors are particularly useful to inform instruction choices…
In my work with students, I learn a great deal from seeing them think through and figure out spelling. It’s also helpful to do a quick read of different types of words to compare skills. These are materials that were fun to use with students while capturing essential information about what they learned, and where they needed more practice.
Bring clarity and confidence to phonics instruction while keeping learners engaged!
