Dear Parents,
For the first two weeks of Term 2 I will be assessing all children in Kindergarten, Year 1 and Year 2 in the area of Literacy. There are three areas of focus: phonological knowledge, high frequency word recognition and in Years 1 and 2, speed of reading.
A baseline of information is evaluated, built upon, and then reassessed throughout the year to monitor progress.
It's an enjoyable task (other than the paperwork!!) as I get to spend time with each child on an individual basis. It's also a fresh pair of eyes viewing how each child does the same task, as it's not only the results which are important, but also the process.
