Six questions about how one reader reads, answered by the adult who reads with them. It suggests a starting band — a starting point you can change, not a label, a grade or an assessment. Do it once for each reader in the house; a free account saves them as your Family Reading Map.

This is for a parent or guardian. Please don’t enter a child’s full name, school or personal details — a first name or initials is all the map needs.
