It’s important to assess a student’s reading level before beginning any phonics program. This will help inform where to start with the student and what phonics skills to focus on, and it is useful to observe the student’s reading strategies.
You can use the diagnostic assessment below and it will recommend which Phonic Books series to use.
The progress assessments below can be used alongside the books in the Dandelion Launchers and Dandelion Readers series. They can be used to monitor skills and evaluate progress over time and to identify areas where further help or consolidation is needed.
We highly recommend you download and read the Teacher Guidance Notes before you begin an assessment.
