We do need to screen readers in Kindergarten and include all students so that they can have access to an Education! If there were screening there would be less need for expensive assessments. Assements should drive teacher instruction and there should be training provided so that teachers know how to use assessments to drive instruction!

Red flag #8. Assistive Technology is great, but not as a replacement to remediation. It needs to be a tool, not a band-aid. It’s important to understand the difference. #DyslexiaRevolution
