Screening · Program A1 (ages 4–6)

A Reading Skills Check that feels like a game, not a test.

Nine sections, spoken instructions, no visible marks for the child. The teacher scores quietly on their own device.

This screening tool supports progress monitoring and early identification of potential reading difficulties. It is not a clinical diagnosis.

Before we begin

The teacher sets the room up once. The child only ever sees friendly instructions.
