What is DIBELS Testing (Literacy) ? How can the kids prepare for this?
DIBELS is a short literacy assessment that helps us see where your child is starting with their early reading skills, such as recognizing letters, knowing letter sounds, and hearing sounds in words. There is no need to study or prepare for DIBELS! The purpose is simply to see what your child already knows at the beginning of the year so we can best support their learning and reading growth throughout kindergarten.

Yes! We actually already have an optional parent contact spreadsheet set up for this exact purpose. Families can choose to add their information if they’d like to connect for playdates, parties, or other social reasons outside of school. I’ll link the spreadsheet again so you can easily access it.
