The Reading Screener
& Intervention

A comprehensive K–8 reading screener you give one-on-one — phonological awareness, letter knowledge, phonics and spelling, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension — that ends with a plan, not a number.

Screening that ends where teaching starts

Most screeners tell you a student is at risk. Fewer tell you why. Almost none tell you what to do about it, write the goal, and hand you the materials.

The Reading Screener is administered by you, one-on-one, because a trained ear hears things a microphone doesn’t. Everything after that — scoring, pattern analysis, grouping, MTSS goals, materials — happens automatically, in the same sitting.

Two students can post the same composite score and need completely different instruction.

What it assesses

A screener should give you a complete picture, not a single number.

DomainWhat it tells you
Phonemic awarenessWhether the foundation underneath decoding is in place
Letter names and soundsWhich letters are known, and whether names are masking missing sounds
Decoding (nonsense words)Whether they can read words they have never seen
Real word readingAccuracy and automaticity with known words
Oral reading fluencyAccuracy and rate in connected text
ComprehensionWhether the difficulty is word reading or language

Who it’s for

  • K–8 classroom teachers screening a whole class
  • Reading interventionists and structured literacy coaches
  • Homeschool families who want a real screening picture

What you get back

  • Scored results as you administer — no separate data entry
  • Pattern interpretation, not just a risk band
