Hullo wise people, ĎS (9, Yr5) did an insividual screeing test of some sort today in school.
This followed parents' eve where generally all positive except for concentration, following insteuctions and spelling. Teacher asked if it wa ok if she got SENCO invoved.
The thing he did today involved looking at a nonsense word in a central speech bubble on the screen, reading it out, and then trying to match it with one of 5 or so similar-looking (but I imagine subtly different) nonsense words in bubbles surrounding the central 'bubble'
My question is,.what was this test looking at? Does it ring any bells with anyone here?
Is it phonic knowledge? Visual memory? Or something else completely?
Im sure the teacher will feed back but I am just nosy curious.
And feeling guilty because I've always just thought she was a naturally crap speller!
