Purpose of a Dyslexia Screener

A dyslexia screener is a brief, research-based tool used to identify students who may be at risk for dyslexia or related reading difficulties. The primary goal is early detection—so that students showing signs of struggle can receive appropriate support as early as possible.

The screener helps assess key foundational skills such as:

  • Phonological and phonemic awareness

  • Letter-sound correspondence

  • Word recognition

  • Rapid naming

  • Spelling patterns

While a screener does not provide a formal diagnosis, it serves as a valuable first step in determining whether a student may need a more in-depth evaluation or targeted intervention. By identifying students early, we can put the right strategies in place to support reading success and build confidence in the classroom.

Purpose of Full Dyslexia Testing

Full dyslexia testing provides a comprehensive evaluation of a student’s language-based learning abilities to determine whether they meet the criteria for dyslexia or a related learning difference.

The purpose of this in-depth assessment is to:

  • Identify specific areas of strength and weakness in reading, spelling, writing, and language processing

  • Determine if a student has dyslexia, based on standardized testing and diagnostic criteria

  • Guide individualized instruction and intervention by providing detailed information about how a student learns best

  • Support academic planning and accommodations at school

  • Empower families and educators with a clear understanding of the student’s learning profile

Testing typically includes assessments of:

  • Phonological awareness

  • Decoding and word recognition

  • Reading fluency and comprehension

  • Spelling and written expression

  • Oral language and working memory

A formal dyslexia diagnosis can open the door to targeted intervention, accommodations, and access to appropriate educational services—giving students the tools they need to thrive.
