Screener Assessments for 2nd Grade and Above:
The Phonemic Awareness Screener assessment was created to help teachers determine if phonemic awareness should be included as part of a reading intervention plan for a student in 2nd grade and above. Students who struggle to decode words in print or who struggle to encode words when writing may benefit from explicit phonemic awareness instruction. The skills included in this assessment are aligned to the Primary level of the Phonemic Awareness curriculum.
↓ 2nd Grade or Above PA Intervention Screening
The Heggerty Phonemic Awareness curricula align to the Phonological Awareness standards for Kindergarten and 1st grade, under the Foundational Skills standards for both grade levels. Many states have their own state standards, and many states use the Common Core State Standards for Phonological Awareness when planning classroom instruction. Educators can find an alignment document for Kindergarten and 1st-grade CCSS and the Heggerty Phonemic Awareness curriculum, as well as an alignment document for Florida (LAFS) and Texas standards (TEKS).
The Kindergarten and Primary Spanish curricula align with the Common Core State Standards for Phonological Awareness, and these alignment documents are included below.
↓ CCSS — English Kindergarten
↓ CCSS – Spanish Kindergarten 2020
↓ CCSS – Spanish 2022
↓ CCSS — English 1st Grade
↓ CCSS – Spanish 1st Grade
Each state has their own Pre-Kindergarten standards or Transitional Kindergarten standards, and our Literacy Specialists can provide educators with an alignment document by request via email pd@heggerty.org. We have provided a crosswalk of the Heggerty Pre-K lessons and The Creative Curriculum© . Documents that show the alignment of our Pre- Kindergarten curriculum and the Florida and California Pre-Kindergarten standards can be downloaded using the links below.
↓ California Standards – English Pre-Kindergarten
↓ Florida Standards (LAFS) – English Pre-Kindergarten
↓ Alignment for Creative Curriculum
Additional Standards:
↓ Head Start
↓ Florida Standards (BEST) — English Kindergarten
↓ Florida Standards (BEST) — English 1st Grade
↓ TEKS — English Kindergarten
↓ TEKS — English 1st & 2nd Grade
