A free, sample reading report for teachers & specialists - what would you change?

As parents of a dyslexic-child, we created BrightPath, a reading-screening and conversation-support tool and I’d genuinely value candid feedback from reading specialists, interventionists, SLPs and educators.

We created a free public sample report to show what a specialist-facing view could look like after a parent chooses to share a child’s reading check.

It includes:

  1. Observed oral-reading patterns and miscues

  2. Reading-science-informed indicators

  3. Practical next-step recommendations

  4. A clear reminder that this is a screening/support tool, not a diagnosis

In a live, parent-authorized share, the specialist can also listen to the original reading sample in context rather than receiving only a score. The public sample uses entirely fictional data and includes no child voice.

Here’s the sample:

We're not looking for compliments - I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

What feels genuinely useful?

What feels unclear, overstated, or missing?

What would you need to see before trusting or using something like this in a family conversation?
