Does anyone have a real quick phonological awareness screening tool. We screen all our kindergarteners and it takes time. We’re looking for something quick!
Thanks,

I have looked at the DIBELS but it would take longer than we want to spend to assess all the kindergarteners (about 100).
Re: Phonological Awareness
Jane, at the beginning of the year, the kindergarteners are only given letter naming and initial sounds subtests in DIBELS. I honestly don’t see how anything could be any quicker or easier than this.

I haven’t used it myself, but it looks good and other people speak highly of it: Go online and look for the DIBELS test, which is designed exactly for preschool and K and covers phonlogical issues.
Where in VT are you? I am in Montreal, north of you.
