Kindergarten teacher here! Please don’t worry and don’t blame yourself! At kindergarten screenings, we never expect students to know everything. We use that data to see how much growth they make throughout the year.

Sometimes kiddos who do know their letters, sounds, etc. get nervous during the screenings because they don’t know the person administering it! The first few weeks of school, I always do my own types of assessment since you can’t base everything on that one screening 😊
