Hi Jonathon,
A quick Google search will give you a number of sites where you can get so quick and easy to use learning preference assessments. A way to get a general idea of the learning styles among your students is to ask them questions using the different learning style categories.

As "How many students prefer to read directions and information on how to assemble a toy?" (Reading preference)
"How many students like to have someone explain how to assemble a toy to them?" (Auditory preference)
"How many students like to just start in putting together a toy and looking at the ways the parts fit together." (tactile preference)
"How many students would like to look at pictures of how the toy should be assembled?" (visual preference).

These simple questions will give an idea of how the students separate into the different learning style groups and you can then look at your instructional delivery strategies and see if you are providing learning opportunities in these different preference areas.
