A suite of tests is administered to meet the need for a rapid and relatively inexpensive screening for reading and writing difficulties in children aged four and older.
Using standardized tools, the 30- to 45-minute assessment examines the adequacy of the brain skills that form the basis of early school success.
If weaknesses are identified in phonological processing, sound/symbol and word recognition, word retrieval, vocabulary, or visual-motor integration, targeted interventions can be designed.
The assessment is conducted by a doctoral-level psychologist, and related behavioral and emotional issues are also identified.
The assessment session and parent feedback are conducted in the same appointment and last from 90 minutes to two hours in total.
The brief report includes scores, a summary, and recommendations.
