• The Reading Pattern Analysis Questionnaire

    Please read each question carefully. Your report will reflect the accuracy of your responses.
  • RECENT READING SESSION: Has the learner read some unfamiliar text to you recently?*

  • To make use of the Reading Pattern Analyser, please get the learner to read some unfamiliar text to you for 5-10 minutes, so that you can describe what you have seen.

  • MOTHER TONGUE: Is English a second language for the learner?*
  • SPEECH HISTORY: Do you know of any history of being late to talk for the learner?*
  • CURRENT SPEECH: Is the learner's spoken English currently below the average for their age?*
  • BLENDING: Have you noticed any difficulty blending sounds together to form words (for instance, if you say the four sounds /f/ /i/ /l/ /m/, will they struggle to put them together to say the word "film"?*
  • SPEECH COMPREHENSION: Have you noticed any difficulty for the learner in following simple instructions?*
  • AUDITORY RESPONSE: Does the learner sometimes say "What?" when asked a question?*
  • SHORT TERM MEMORY: Does the learner have difficulty remembering instructions (for instance, if you ask them to grab three things, they will only come back with only one or two of them)?*
  • WORKING MEMORY: Have you seen more difficulty reading longer words than short words, even when the word is quite regular?*
  • GENERAL MEMORY: Does the learner have any general difficulty retaining information?*
  • SKIPPING WORDS: Have you seen the learner skipping words in a sentence when reading?*

  • If you are unsure of the reading patterns for the learner, we recommend halting the questionnaire and doing some reading together, otherwise the process will have much less value.

  • SMALL TEXT DIFFICULTY: Have you noticed any greater difficulty or discomfort reading small text sizes or chapter book pages?*
  • FUNNY VISUAL EFFECTS: Has the learner ever talked about the text looking "funny" or "moving about" on the page?*
  • GUESSING: Have you seen the learner guessing short, common words?*
  • RUSHING: Have you seen the learner rushing through the text and making silly mistakes?*
  • COMPREHENSION: Has their reading comprehension seemed lower than you would expect for their general intelligence?*
  • SPELLING: Is their spelling persistently very poor in free writing, despite lots of practice with spelling lists?*
  • FLIPPING: Have you seen any flipping of b/d, was/saw, of/for and on/no?*
  • STRESS PATTERNS: Have you seen rising stress levels and anxiety in reading sessions?*
  • RISING RESISTANCE: Is the learner getting more resistant to reading practice?*
  • MELTDOWNS: Can reading sessions end in meltdowns, silence or tantrums?*
