Early Literacy and Dyslexia Risk Screening with i-Ready
Combine the power of i-Ready's adaptive assessment with a collection of short, educator-administered measures to screen efficiently and gain early insights that lead to lasting impact.
Why Is Early Literacy and Dyslexia Risk Screening Important?
Effective screening and early identification of reading difficulties are critical to ensuring students receive the support they need. Students who are identified early and receive appropriate instruction or intervention are more likely to get on track and stay on track than those who do not. Using i-Ready Assessment to screen for early literacy and dyslexia risk helps educators and students in a number of ways:
- Early detection means students can be given an individualized education plan as soon as possible.
- Teachers gain the resources and knowledge they need to assist students with dyslexia and overcome the most common challenges associated with it.
- Screening and assessment are the best ways to ensure students with dyslexia have everything they need for ongoing success throughout their education.
