California passed SB114 in 2023 a bill that will require screenings for kindergarten - second grade students throughout the state of California. This training will clarify California's definition of dyslexia and provide screening materials to help school teams identify and support students who may be at risk for reading difficulties such as dyslexia.

Participants Will

  • Learn components of phonological processing
  • Learn how to screen a student's phonological processing and early reading skills
  • Learn how their screening data can inform components of a reading intervention program
  • Learn academic interventions for students at-risk for dyslexia

A Certificate of Completion is available for virtual trainings, in-person trainings, Special Training Events and Technical Assistance Projects. This may be used to document professional development hours or applied towards the credential requirements for Education Specialist Level II non-university activities.
