Quick Skills Test
The CAPIT Quick Skills Test is a practical guide for quickly identifying students who may struggle with foundational reading skills and could benefit from the CAPIT Reading Curriculum. It outlines a range of foundational skills, including:
Phonemic Awareness: The ability to identify and manipulate individual sounds (phonemes) in spoken words.
Alphabet Knowledge: Knowing the sounds associated with printed letters.
Phonics: Understanding the relationships between phonemes and graphemes (the letters representing those sounds).
Decoding: The ability to apply knowledge of letter-sound relationships, including knowledge of letter patterns, to correctly pronounce written words.
