Test Your Child’s Pre-Reading Skills
Reading and Literacy Tips August 28th, 2010I came across this screening tool that helps you to know your children’s reading readiness. It is recommended for 4 year old children but I did it with my 3 year old. There is a list of 20 questions. You sit with your child in front of the computer and read them the questions. They then select their answer from 4 choices.
My son’s score was in this range:
13-16 Correct
This child has mastered many of the necessary skills and is almost ready to learn how to read and write. Continue playful activities to help the child prepare to learn to read and write.
Not bad. Using this screening tool gave me a better idea of what kind of skills he needs to know. It also gave me an indication of what kind of activities I should do more with him.
If you have a child that is going to kindergarten soon (or already in kindergarten), take a few minutes to do this screening test. Click here for more information: Reading Readiness Screening Tool
