Phonemic Awareness Assessment

Each Essential Skills program offers a diagnostic assessment, guaranteeing a personalized learning path for every learner. The Phonemic Awareness assessment evaluates students’ identification of 38 distinct phoneme sounds, encompassing both long and short vowel sounds, as well as the sounds of “y”.

Following completion of the Phonemic Awareness test, students receive a personalized learning plan tailored to their specific educational requirements.

The Phonemic Awareness assessment equips educators with an easier way to adjust instruction for each student in their classroom with minimal effort. This method translates into significant time savings, liberating teachers from the repetitive cycle of teaching, reviewing, and testing basic skills.
