Bracken School Readiness Assessment (BSRA®) is an individual cognitive test designed for children, pre-K through second grade. The BSRA assesses six basic skills:

• Colors — Student must identify common colors by name.
• Letters — Students must identify upper-case and lower-case letters.
• Numbers | Counting — Student must identify single- and double-digit numerals, and must count objects.
• Sizes — Student must demonstrate knowledge of words used to depict size (e.g., tall, wide, etc.)
• Comparisons — Student must match or differentiate objects based on a specific characteristic.
• Shapes — Student must identify basic shapes by name.

• The LUK Learning System.  Young children learn through play.  This award winning innovative set of workbooks, with self correcting controller, enable your child to independently build skills.  Add some discussion so they've got words to associate with the pictures and you're set.
• Mathematical Reasoning.  Most of the knowledge tested for in the BSRA is in the field of mathematics.  Differentiating between objects based on size, color and shape is the starting point for geometry.  Recognition of numbers and counting is the starting point for arithmetic.
• Can You Find Me?  This series poses a selection of logic riddles in different subject areas.  The BSRA will be administered to your child orally - the questions will be posed by the tester and your child will indicate their response by selecting the correct picture.  Read the riddles in Can You Find Me? to your child to practice attentive listening and correct identification of a picture response.
• Building Thinking Skills.  This series teaches core verbal and non-verbal analytical skills.  If your child is taking a cognitive test in conjunction with the BSRA this will serve a double purpose.
