Assessments

=Assessments = This is an easy to use assessment for teachers who want to assess their student's phonics skills, specifically for word families. These assessments could be used for any learner because it is specifically testing knowledge, not teaching word families. The goal is to see what the students are struggling with. These assessments should be completed independently. For ELL students or children with special needs, the teacher could read the questions to the students aloud. The teacher should maintain classroom management by distributing the tests and pencils to his/her students. 1. **Word Families Assessment (Online)** [|Phonics Assessment: Word Families]
