Dyslexia Screener

This screener is an observational tool designed to help parents, caregivers, and educators identify patterns that may be consistent with dyslexia. It is not a diagnostic instrument and does not replace a comprehensive evaluation by a qualified professional.

​

Dyslexia is a neurological learning difference affecting phonological processing, decoding, and reading fluency. It occurs in approximately 1 in 5 individuals, across all ability levels. Research consistently identifies specific, observable patterns that distinguish dyslexia from typical variation in reading development.
