M

ore of today’s early childhood professionals trust ASQ over any other developmental and social-emotional screener. Talk to ASQ users, and they’ll tell you why: it’s the easiest, most reliable, and most cost-effective way to pinpoint potential delays early so kids get the best possible start in life. Questionnaires are parent-completed, which saves time and ensures more accurate screening results. And because ASQ is one of the most rigorously researched tools available, you can be confident you’re using a highly valid, reliable, and sensitive screener with the children you care for.

The trusted developmental screener for young children

T

he parent-completed ASQ-3™ is the most accurate, family-friendly way to screen children for developmental delays between one month and 5 ½ years, without any gaps between the questionnaire age intervals. Recommended by top organizations such as the American Academy of Neurology, First Signs, and The Child Neurology Society,* ASQ-3™ is highly valid and reliable. ASQ-3™’s questions on behavior and communication also help elicit parent concerns that may point to autism. Screen children with ASQ-3™ at regular intervals to monitor their progress and catch potential delays as early as possible!

SEAM™ IS A TWO-PART ASSESSMENT:

SEAM™ Tool. The main SEAM™ includes three intervals with different developmental ranges: Infant (2–18 months), Toddler (18–36 months), and Preschool (36–66 months). Each interval assesses 10 child benchmarks critical to social-emotional competence, including empathy, adaptive skills, self-image, emotional responses, and healthy interactions with others. The SEAM™ system also includes SEAM™ with Ages, an alternate version of the tool annotated with a helpful list of age ranges for each item. This version makes it easy to give caregivers general guidance on how social-emotional skills typically develop and where their child’s development fits on the continuum.

SEAM™ Family Profile. The Family Profile assesses parent/caregiver strengths and helps identify areas in which they need more supports to foster their child’s social-emotional skills. Like the SEAM™, the Family Profile assessment includes three intervals—Infant, Toddler, and Preschool. Each interval measures four benchmarks: responding to needs, providing activities and play, providing predictable routines and an appropriate environment, and ensuring home safety.

The best progress monitoring available

The AEPS® Test is a highly effective way to monitor child progress over time, whether you use it for ongoing monitoring or for beginning and end of year evaluations. Because AEPS® picks up very small increments of progress, it’s an unparalleled system for tracking the growth and development of all children.

Better IFSP/IEP goal development

AEPS® makes it so easy to improve your IFSPs and IEPs. Using assessment results as a guide, pinpoint areas in which the child needs intervention and select them as IFSP/ IEP goals and objectives. AEPS® includes a helpful list of sample goals and objectives to use as a model for writing meaningful IFSPs and IEPs. And if you use the EasyIEP system, goals and objectives from AEPSi™ can even be transferred to your EasyIEP account.

AEPS

You’ll assess goals and objectives across developmental areas while observing children and their caregivers engaging in everyday activities. The AEPS® Test provides a thorough picture of a child’s development, showing delays and progress that many tests miss so you can consistently connect children with effective instruction. And the convenient group assessments let you complete the entire test for up to 6 children at a time during just a few routine activities—a big time-saver!

raditional assessment methods can be tough on young children. “Testing rooms” can be scary and intimidating—and when kids aren’t engaged, they don’t show the full range of their abilities.

Developed by celebrated early education expert Betty Bardige, this book takes you on a fascinating tour through six stages in a child’s language development—starting with baby babbles and ending with kindergarten literacy skills.

DISCOVER HOW TO

• Learn the language of pretend play and storytelling • Include children in conversations—even when they’re too young to talk • Respond effectively to the questions children ask and the stories they tell • Boost language skills with fun games, songs, and activities • Explore the language challenges children might encounter and how to help them • Help bilingual children develop skills in both languages • and more WHAT’S NEW: Strategies

based on up-to-date research; expanded focus on developing toddlers’ language skills; more information on supporting children from low-income families. You’ll also get practical downloadable resources: updated study guides for each chapter and handouts in English and Spanish.

Read the landmark study that first exposed the 30 million word gap between children from low-income homes and their more economically advantaged peers. Researchers Hart and Risley spent years coding and analyzing every utterance in 30,000 pages of transcripts collected from monthly visits to families, weaving the remarkable findings into what foreword writer Lois Bloom calls “a detective story of the most serious academic kind.” You’ll come away with a deeper understanding of the critical link between young children’s language experience at home and their later school performance—insights you can use to improve early learning experiences for children. $39.95 | Stock #: 17206P-61975 | 1995 | 308 pages | 6 x 9 | hardcover | ISBN 978-1-55766-197-5

INTRODUCING “[QUILS] is like no other screening for the early childhood population.”

By Roberta Michnick Golinkoff, Ph.D., Jill de Villiers, Ph.D., Kathy Hirsh-Pasek, Ph.D., Aquiles Iglesias, Ph.D., & Mary Sweig Wilson, Ph.D.

E

arly identification is the first step to helping young children with language delays get on track for reading proficiency and school success. But how do you find the children who might need extra support? It’s simple with the Quick Interactive Language Screener™ (QUILS™) a game-like, web-based screener that helps you evaluate the language skills of children ages 3 through 5 years—and make sure their progress is appropriate for their age group.

QUILS stands apart from all other language screeners. That’s because it measures not only language products (what the child already knows) but also language processes (how the child learns new words and grammar structures). QUILS looks at three critical areas:

Vocabulary

Syntax

Process

What words do children already know?

What do children understand about how words go together in sentences?

How good are children at learning new language items?

QUILS BENEFITS • Measures what’s important. QUILS screens key domains of language knowledge that predict a child’s later academic success.

• Fun and engaging for kids. With its interactive items and cute cartoon illustrations, QUILS hooks young children’s attention— and it’s so much fun, kids might even ask if they can do it again!

• Expert-developed, research-based.

QUILS is based on current research on language acquisition, and every item was created and tested by a team of experts in child language development.

• Quick and easy. QUILS takes just 15−20 minutes for kids to complete.

• Accurate results every time. Because QUILS is automated, it’s delivered the same way to all children, and answers are instantly recorded and stored.

• Convenient and time-saving. Automatically generated scores and reports save time for busy teachers.

• No special training required. Children can complete QUILS with just a little supervision from any teacher, paraprofessional, parent, or classroom volunteer.

Set up your QUILS station. Setting up for QUILS is a snap—all you need is a tablet, desktop, or laptop with touchscreen technology and internet access. Make sure your QUILS screening station is in a quiet area of the classroom.

Ensure the student’s eligibility. Before you screen, make sure the child is a proficient, primary English speaker. (Not sure if the child is proficient in English? Ask the parent to fill out the brief Language Questionnaire included on the QUILS Resources page.)

For children from Spanish-speaking households, a QUILS: English–Spanish version is currently in development.

LEARN MORE!

Create a student record. Enter the child’s information to get started. You can also assign the child a unique student ID number so you can generate reports without the child’s name or export your data with ID numbers only for identification.

Screen and score automatically. The child completes QUILS with a little supervision from a teacher, paraprofessional, parent, or classroom volunteer. While the child chooses answers from fun illustrations, QUILS does all the work for you—the screener is automatically administered and scored, so you get reliable results every time.

See your reports right away. As soon as screening is done, results are available in clear reports. With a few clicks, you can generate individual Student Reports, the Parent Report to share with families, and Group Reports for multiple students.

Follow up and plan next steps. If the child scores below the QUILS cutoffs, use the recommendation guidance generated with the QUILS reports to plan for next steps, such as referral to an SLP or other expert for follow-up assessment.

READING READINESS AND LITERACY

Story Friends™

An Early Literacy Intervention for Improving Oral Language

NEW

By Howard Goldstein, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, & Elizabeth Spencer Kelley, Ph.D., CCC-SLP

H

ow do children become successful readers? It’s a story that starts in their earliest years, when they acquire the foundational language and literacy skills they’ll use for the rest of their lives.

Sometimes, though, the story gets off track when young children struggle to learn and comprehend new words. How can your program intervene early and keep these kids from falling behind? Your solution is here, and it’s called Story Friends™.

What is Story Friends?

Story Friends is a fun and engaging language intervention program for 4- to 6-year-old children at risk for reading difficulties. Through interactive animal-themed storybooks and lively audio recordings, Story Friends effectively boosts children's ability to learn new words and teaches them key concepts they need for social and academic success.

Using Story Friends is easy as 1-2-3: 1. Identify: First, you’ll identify children who will benefit from using Story Friends. You can use information from universal screening and progress monitoring assessments, as well as the screening questionnaire included in the Story Friends program.

“Will help children along the language-learning path—charmingly, in a way both consistent with research 2. Implement: Deliver the Story Friends intervention in your classroom’s listening center in 10- to 15-minute sessions, with a and appealing to young children.”

—Timothy Shanahan, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, University of Illinois at Chicago

facilitator guiding and monitoring the session. In small groups, children listen to recorded stories on your classroom’s headphones as they follow along in printed storybooks. Each book has a cast of likeable animal characters and colorful illustrations kids will love. As children listen, the narrator prompts them to interact with the book by participating in multisensory vocabulary activities and responding to comprehension questions. This expands children’s early language and literacy skills and promotes critical thinking.

3. Assess: In Story Friends, learning of instructional targets is

assessed using curriculum-based measures. You’ll administer progress monitoring assessments: Unit Vocabulary and Pre- and Post-Concept Words Assessments.

HOW IT WORKS

For accurate results, the ICP is conducted by a trained outside observer, such as a technical assistance professional or administrator. The observer conducts the three parts of the ICP: a classroom observation scheduled during everyday routines; a face-to-face interview with the teacher; and a documentation review of the program’s policies, screeners and assessments, and child intervention plans. Comprehensive assessment with the ICP takes about 3½ hours, plus 20 minutes to score.

BENEFITS

The in-depth ICP evaluation process gives you the rich information and insights you need to: • assess your program’s current inclusive practices • establish a baseline for measuring future progress • apply recommended inclusive practices for young children • guide quality improvement efforts by linking assessment data with instructional decision-making • tailor professional development to teachers’ specific needs The ICP is also a perfect companion to popular early childhood inclusion guides like Building Blocks for Teaching Preschoolers with Special Needs (page 52). Determine your strengths and needs with the ICP, and then find effective inclusion strategies in Building Blocks.
