Homeschooling parents can often struggle with creating effective assessments for their children. Learn how to create an effective assessment that covers multiple areas of learning and development for your dyslexic child with this guide. Though assessing progress can seem tough, you are the best equipped to gauge your child’s progress and engagement and adjust curricula based on their learning and the best teaching styles for you.

Successful homeschoolers will learn to find a balance between teaching to their kids’ preferred learning style and knowing when to push kids to work out side of their comfort zone.

In addition, this assessment can help you take stock of the way your home and relationships in your family may be affecting your child’s homeschooling. In this way, you can make sure your child is not only developing their skills across different subjects, but is developing their character as they go. Overall, you’ll get a better picture of your child’s progress so you can reflect and continue to improve their learning.
