Applications

  • Conduct day-care, preschool, or kindergarten screenings of emerging developmental communication skills
  • Identify children who may need to be referred for further speech or language assessment

Features & Benefits

  • Language items include the most discriminating test items from the PLS-5 Australian and New Zealand Language Adapted Edition.
  • If PLS-5 is used as the follow-up diagnostic measure, there’s no need to re-administer the test items from the screening - simply transfer the responses from the PLS-5 Screening Tests to the PLS-5 record form.
  • Stimulus pages, administration and scoring directions, and Product Details are all included in one compact manual, streamlining the administration process.
  • Record Forms are available in tear-off pads.
  • No manipulatives are needed for children ages 3 years to 7 years 11 months. For infants and toddlers, use toys and objects that are easily found within the child’s environment (squeaky toys, infant toys such as rattles, baby bottle, cup).
  • You have the option of training teachers to screen speech and language skills using this tool through the Master Trainer Program.

Areas of Assessment

  • Helps you screen emerging interaction, comprehension, and expressive skills of infants and toddlers
