The Phonics Assessment for Reading and Targeted Support - Formerly The Good Sensory Learning Reading Assessment

The Phonics Assessment for Reading & Targeted Support (PARTS) is a comprehensive, easy-to-use tool designed for teachers, reading specialists, tutors, and parents who want to clearly identify a student’s phonics strengths and areas for growth. Created by Dr. Erica Warren, this assessment aligns seamlessly with Orton-Gillingham and other structured, phonics-based reading programs and can be used with learners of all ages, developing foundational reading skills. Whether administered before or after remedial instruction, PARTS assesses key phonics skills and provides meaningful insights that guide targeted teaching, track progress, and support individualized reading instruction.

Why a Reading Assessment Matters

Assessing reading skills is critical for all learners, especially those who struggle. It establishes a clear baseline, uncovers precise weaknesses, and prevents valuable time from being wasted on skills the student has already mastered. This targeted approach allows educators to create customized, efficient learning plans that directly address each child’s unique needs.
