Tier 2: Intervention
95 Phonics Screener for Intervention™ (95 PSI™)
Make data-informed decisions. This diagnostic assessment aligns with our phonics skills continuum to help you identify and address each child’s needs.
Diagnose, group, and instruct, skillfully
95 PSI helps teachers understand each child’s needs so they can provide targeted instruction to close the gap for struggling readers. This easy-to-use assessment provides insight into a student’s ability to read single and multisyllable words with specific phonics patterns, mapping each student’s skill level to our phonics continuum.
Easy-to-administer, insightful, diagnostic tool
Quick and effective diagnostic data works in conjunction with universal assessments. The results you get will tell you exactly which 95 Percent Group products to use and exactly where to begin instruction.
Pinpoint specific skill deficits
Identifies skill mastery in basic phonics, advanced phonics, and multisyllable words, as well as sight words.
Identify the appropriate intervention
Eliminate guesswork and confidently place each child in Tier 2 or Tier 3 for focused intervention. The 95 PSI can also assist in grouping students with similar needs. Quick and effective diagnostic data works in conjunction with universal assessments.
Map results to materials students love
Skills align directly with the skills in the Phonics Lesson Library™, the Multisyllable Routine Cards, and the Phonics Chip Kit™ instructional materials, including basic, advanced, and multisyllable options.
Help students stay on track
Use 95 PSI to evaluate progress throughout the year. This 10-minute assessment has varied forms for 2-minute progress monitoring after a concept is taught.
Using the 95 Percent Group assessments was efficient and effective. Actually this is the first time I have seen phonics assessments used in such a consistent, successful way.
