Kindergarten Matters. Success Starts Here.

Research has identified skills that predict later literacy and academic success: spoken language abilities, knowledge of speech sounds, knowledge of letters and how they combine to make words, number sense and operations, and cognitive abilities.

The WELL screening is a $25 online assessment that identifies each child’s unique strengths and weaknesses.  Learn More

WELL was drawn from the fields of education, psychology, speech-language pathology, and child development to create a unique, comprehensive screening tool.  Meet the WELL Team

With one 20-minute test, educators, parents, and health professionals can assess multiple skill areas that predict future school success.

Animated cartoon characters instruct and guide the child through fun activities while an adult scores the test using a simple online form.

The child’s results appear instantly with an easy to understand learning profile and Next Steps links: games, learning materials, and help finding the right professional to consult in any skill area that may be a weakness to bolster.  Sample Results

Use it again and again to assess kindergarten readiness and to monitor academic growth until first grade.
