Phonics & Reading Assessment Toolkit (Science of Reading Aligned) | Decodable Diagnostic Pack K–2

Quickly identify phonics gaps, assess reading development, and confidently plan your next teaching steps with this Science of Reading aligned assessment toolkit. This resource is a comprehensive phonics and reading assessment system designed to help teachers move beyond guessing levels and instead pinpoint exactly what students need next. Using structured, decodable sentence-based assessments, you’ll be able to assess students across the full progression — from CVC and blends to vowel patterns, multisyllabic words, and morphology — and turn that data into purposeful instruction. Use the results to confidently plan targeted reading instruction, set meaningful goals and monitor progress over time. This resource helps teachers move beyond guessing levels and instead identify the specific decoding skills students need next.
