Assessments
To support intervention and monitor progress
Assessments are done remotely and support students across Canada, and Canadians abroad.
The initial fee includes a debriefing with parents/caregivers. A detailed Tabular Summary of Results is also produced which can be shared with teachers or school administrations. The FAR, FAM and FAW are re-administered as part of a process of regular progress monitoring. Progress monitoring can be conducted during a student's regular appointments at no additional charge.
The Centre for Literacy conducts assessments to inform the creation of a robust plan for support. If a student is referred to the Centre without any previous assessments or those assessments are out of date, an initial baseline review will be conducted to gain an understanding about a student's reading, writing or math skills, depending upon the reason for the referral. This assessment will be repeated at periodic intervals during the time a student attends the Centre for Literacy.
The Centre uses the Feifer Assessments of Reading, Writing, and Math.
- Feifer Assessment of Math (FAM): $300 + $25 for booklet
- Feifer Assessment of Reading (FAR): $315 + $25 for booklet
- Feifer Assessment of Writing (FAW): $350 + $25 for booklet
