What is the universal screener?
When students first begin the MindPlay Reading Coach course, they are prompted to take the universal screener. This screener assesses the student's mastery of comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, and phonics. The comprehension screener begins at the 12th-grade level and quickly adapts based on the student's performance. Once students complete the universal screener, a customized learning plan will be generated in their MindPlay homeroom.
After students complete the universal screener, they will receive a letter assignment, C (critical), A (approaching), or M (meeting), under the Reading Category column in your MindPlay Dashboard. The pie chart at the top of your dashboard will also begin to populate data with data that compares students' initial test results with their latest.
