MILLIE (Multitiered Interventions)

Story Friends™

An Early Literacy Intervention for Improving Oral Language By Howard Goldstein, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, & Elizabeth Spencer Kelley, Ph.D., CCC-SLP How 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? “Will help children along the languagelearning path—charmingly, in a way both consistent with research and appealing to young children.” —Timothy Shanahan, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, University of Illinois at Chicago

See page 4 for another product in the MILLIE family!

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. 2. Implement: Deliver the Story Friends intervention in your classroom’s listening center in 10- to 15-minute sessions, with a 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.

SCREENING & ASSESSMENT

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.

—Melissa Scopio, M.S., CCC-SLP, Clinical Supervisor

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 compatible with the QUILS minimal technical requirements. Make sure your QUILS screening station is in a quiet area of the classroom. Ensure 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: ES version is currently in development. Create a student record. Enter the child’s information to get started. You can also assign the child a unique student ID so you can generate reports without the child’s name or export your data with student ID 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, Parent Reports 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 evaluation. Boost children’s language development with the tips and fun activities included with your subscription. Annual subscription: $99.95

Includes access to the screener; student, parent, and group reports; an online User’s Manual and Quick Start Guide, the Language Questionnaire; practical language activities and tips; and downloadable materials to help you administer QUILS. Stock #: 18112P-52308 | 2017

Bedore, Ph.D., CCC-SLP How BESA Works Through a combination of subtests for students and surveys for teachers and parents, BESA reveals the big picture of a young bilingual child’s language development. BESA includes: • 3 subtests (in both English and Spanish) that address the key domains of morphosyntax, semantics, and phonology. • 2 questionnaires: the Bilingual InputOutput Survey (BIOS) and the Inventory to Assess Language Knowledge (ITALK) • Pragmatic activity used to establish rapport with the child and give clinicians an idea of how interactive the child will be during the assessment.

When a young bilingual child experiences language difficulties, it can be hard to tell if those challenges are due to a disorder or just limited exposure to the English language. Now there’s a valid, reliable assessment that specifically responds to the needs of young Spanish–English bilingual children. For use with children ages 4 through 6 years who have varying degrees of bilingualism, the Bilingual English–Spanish Assessment (BESA) was developed to: • identify phonological and/or language impairment in bilingual children and English language learners using a standardized protocol • differentiate between a delay in English language acquisition and a true language disorder • document children’s speech and language strengths and needs • monitor children's progress in both languages and use the information to make decisions about intervention BESA BENEFITS

• Valid and reliable • Culturally and linguistically appropriate

SLS Screener for Language & Literacy Disorders

NEW

By Nickola Wolf Nelson, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, BCS-CL, Barbara M. Howes, Ph.D., LMSW, & Michele A. Anderson, Ph.D., CCC-SLP

The SLS is an ideal companion to the groundbreaking TILLS test (see page 10),

which assesses oral and written language skills in students ages 6–18 years. Start by giving the SLS to your whole class, and if results indicate a student is at risk, follow up with TILLS assessment.

SCREENING & ASSESSMENT

YOUR NEW WAY TO SCREEN FOR LANGUAGE & LITERACY DISORDERS

For use on its own or with the Test of Integrated Language and Literacy Skills™ (TILLS™), the Student Language Scale (SLS) reliably screens students ages 6–18 years for language and literacy disorders, including dyslexia. Filled out by parents, teachers, and students, the screener is a quick, cost-effective way to see how students are performing on academic tasks as compared to their same-age peers. Use the SLS to • screen for language/literacy disorders by gathering teachers’ and parents’ ratings of students • gather input about a struggling student’s strengths and needs from multiple sources • enhance home–school communication by gaining new insight into the student’s performance and the parent’s perspective, whether or not everyone agrees and whether or not there are concerns Whether used with an entire classroom or with individual students, the SLS is the tool you need to quickly gather valuable information about strengths and needs—and plan next steps for students at risk for disorders. WHY USE THE SLS?

• Expert-developed. The SLS developers are highly respected for their test-building skills and evidence-based work in the fields of language and literacy assessment and school social work. • Fast and easy. The three-part SLS can be completed in just three minutes or less. Administration and scoring is simple—a pencil and paper are all you need. • Strong sensitivity and specificity. Sensitivity of the SLS to risk of language/literacy disorder is .90 for teachers and .85 for parents, and specificity (correct identification of typical learners) is .90 for teachers and .83 for parents. • Cost effective. The SLS helps you screen effectively at a lower cost than comparable tools on the market.

These profiles help you communicate with others, pinpoint what to work on, diagnose and recognize profiles of disorders, and easily track changes in specific areas of concern. 5. A real time-saver. If you’re an experienced clinician, you can administer TILLS in 90 minutes or less. (It can also be chunked into several sessions.) You’ll spend less time testing, and the time you do spend on it will be meaningful and relevant to understanding your student’s needs.
