DEVELOPMENTAL SCREENING & ASSESSMENT

Support healthy development with today’s most trusted screeners More of today’s early childhood professionals choose ASQ® over any other developmental and social-emotional screener. Talk to ASQ users, and they’ll tell you why. With ASQ, you can: • SCREEN WITH CONFIDENCE. Accurate, reliable, and valid, ASQ is the most trusted and widely used tool for checking a child’s development. ASQ results help you celebrate a child’s skills and strengths, monitor development, and identify and address any possible delays. • ENGAGE FAMILIES. Families are the key to a child’s early development and learning—and as a parent-completed tool, ASQ encourages open conversations with parents and caregivers about their child’s development. ASQ involves parents in the screening process and helps them boost their child’s development with fun learning activities. And ASQ’s many translations help you work effectively with diverse families. • TEACH AND LEARN ABOUT CHILD DEVELOPMENT. ASQ teaches parents key facts about child development and important milestones (and gives you a refresher, too!). Parents will learn more about how their child is developing and what they can do to encourage their progress and well-being. • COMMUNICATE WITH PARTNERS. Effective with many different populations, ASQ helps you communicate successfully and work across systems with your colleagues who help children, including pediatricians, home visitors, teachers, and child care professionals. • JOIN A COMMUNITY OF USERS. When you choose ASQ, you’re joining the family: a vast community of users dedicated to improving outcomes for children and families. You can connect with a whole network of users—from statewide implementations, community-based programs, and individual centers—and share insights on launching a successful screening initiative.

Valid and reliable social-emotional screening A strong social-emotional foundation is the key to a child’s health, well-being, and ability to learn in school. But for many children, social-emotional challenges may go unrecognized before they start kindergarten. With ASQ:SE-2, a highly reliable, parent-completed tool with a deep, exclusive focus on social and emotional development, it’s never been easier to check children’s skills, pinpoint potential behaviors of concern, and identify any need for further assessment. Screen with ASQ:SE-2 at regular intervals to celebrate children’s developing skills and catch social-emotional issues early, so children can receive the interventions they need in their formative first years.

Activities for 0 to 3 Months

Gentle movement is usually calming for babies. Dancing or rocking in a chair is relaxing for both you and your baby. Listen to soft, soothing music, or sing quietly. Gently sway back and forth, holding your baby close. Whisper in your baby’s ear and let them know how much you love them. From birth, babies are interested in exploring your face, voice, and body. Your baby tells you a lot through body movements and sounds. Watch and listen to your baby during playtime and other daily activities. Who is this Help older siblings get to know the new baby by making time for them to be together. Show big little person? Respond to sounds your baby makes, and let your baby know sister (or brother) how to be gentle with the baby. Tell big sister what a good job she is doing. you are trying to understand.

Your positive position your baby’s body so everyone can look at each other. back and forth interactions with your baby are key to their social-emotional development.

27 to 33 Months Your child is learning what they can do and are more confident in their abilities. They are proud of their big kid skills. Your child also wants control. They want to do things their way and on their timeline. It can be frustrating when your child tells you “no” or wants to do things “by myself.” The trick is to give your child a little control while still being in control yourself. For example, always offer two acceptable choices when requesting something of your child: “Do you want to put on your red shirt or your blue shirt?” This small choice provides a little bit of control that feels good to your independent toddler.

Getting Ready for Kindergarten Entering kindergarten is a big change for you and your child. It is an exciting time, and it also might be a little scary for you both. You can help by preparing yourself and your child for this big step well ahead of time. Provide opportunities for your child to practice being away from you and being more independent with self-help skills such as eating and dressing. Visit the school and find out what to expect. These steps will increase your child’s confidence and make both of you feel more prepared for this big change!

In The Year Before Kindergarten

“Keep on Trying”

Let’s get some bananas.” Your baby also loves to hear your singing voice. YouYour may baby can see your face, smell you, feel your skin, and hear your voice. Your baby can even Talk Time remember some simple songs or lullabies from your childhood. sense how you are feeling. Talk, sing, look at, and smile at your baby. Say your baby’s name. Watch and wait to see what your baby does. Does your baby look at your face and eyes? Is your baby listening to you? When you move, does your baby try to follow your voice with head movements? Your baby doesn’t like to be far from you. Find a quiet, comfortable place to feed your baby. Hold your baby close and look into their eyes. While feeding, watch your baby closely and see what helps them calm and focus. Does your baby relax and suck better when you talk or sing to them or when you are quiet? See what At 2toweeks, your baby can see clearly 8 to 10 inches away. Hold your baby close to your face and works best for your baby.

If you can carry your baby, they can feel the warmth of your body and hear your heartbeat, and they will feel safe and secure. Your baby may cry less and calm more easily when they are physically close to you. Talk to your baby about what you can see, hear, or feel. This is how your baby learns the meaning of words.

Helping Your Baby Grow

Rock-a-Bye Baby

9 newsletters for parents

Your toddler is taking on more challenges, and these challenges can trigger big feelings. It doesn’t take much for your child to become discouraged and give up on a task that is hard or to say, “You do it.” Encourage and support your child: “Keep on trying. You can do it.” Stay close and, if needed, help your child before they do give up. Let your toddler know you have confidence in their abilities. When your child learns something new, let them know how proud you are.

First Friends Make times when your child can be with other children their age. Your child may enjoy attending music, movement, or dance classes with other children. If that is not possible, consider trips to the park or dancing together during play dates. Such activities are low-stress for your child, since there is little need to share toys or other belongings.

• Teach your child how to do things independently. This will help your child start to build autonomy— the ability to do things separately from you.

Social-emotional development is your child’s ability to • Experience, express, and manage emotions

Your child is learning to express and control their big feelings. This is a very hard thing to do! If your child is upset, help them calm down before trying to talk to them. Hold them lovingly in your arms and breathe together. “You’re okay sweetie. Mommy’s here.” Talk about and practice calming ideas at times when your child is not upset. Ideas include deep breathing, using words to talk about feelings, taking a break, or switching to a new activity.

• Let your child dress without your help. Teach your child how to open food containers. Teach them all the steps of using the bathroom alone. Your child’s self-confidence will grow as they learn how to do things independently. Be sure to praise your child’s growing independence: “You dressed all by yourself this morning!” • Encourage your child to practice writing their first name. Teach them their address and telephone number.

• Develop positive relationships with you and others • Explore their environment with curiosity and confidence Social-emotional skills

Calm First, Talk Later

Your baby is never too young to listen to a story or look at pictures in a book. Your baby will feel warm, safe, and calm in your arms. Reading books is an activity you and your baby can do every day as a routine, to help you get close and connect. Your baby listens to the tone of your voice and hears the words you are saying. At this age, your baby focuses best on simple black-andwhite pictures or big, brightly colored pictures.

• Set up times for your child to play with other children—including future classmates, if possible. Knowing how to play and get along with peers is a big part of kindergarten. Having a few friends in class will help your child feel more comfortable.

What Is Social-Emotional Development?

• Limit television and other screen time to 1 to 2 hours a day. Your child will need to be able to stay calm and focus on real-world activities or a teacher for periods of time. • Encourage your child to stick with activities for longer periods of time. This helps your child build self-regulation skills—the ability to monitor and control their own behavior. • Take your child with you out into the world—to the library, grocery store, and other places. This will help your child feel more secure exploring new places.

• Develop through positive and loving interactions with you and others

• Create bedtime and wake-up routines over the summer before kindergarten starts. Help your child prepare for the school schedule.

• Are key to your child’s success in school and in life

• Visit your local school and your child’s classroom. Meet the teacher. Find the bathroom! This will help build your child’s confidence.

Exploring the World Give your toddler opportunities to explore new activities and places. Take your child to a park, the library, or other fun places. New places may be scary for your child at first. Keep your child close and let them watch before joining in activities. Show your child how to greet new people, such as a clerk at a store. It is okay if your child is shy at first. When your child is ready, they will let you know.

DEVELOPMENTAL SCREENING & ASSESSMENT

When ASQ:SE-2 results say a child needs more, follow up with SEAM™

SEAM IS A TWO-PART ASSESSMENT:

SEAM Tool. 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 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. WHAT TO ORDER

DEVELOPMENTAL SCREENING & ASSESSMENT

NEW EDITION COMING JANUARY 2020!

Three to Six Years

By Jennifer Grisham-Brown, Ed.D. How can you ensure that you or your staff use observation skills to score AEPS correctly and consistently? Add AEPS® Interrater Reliability Certification to your professional development toolbox! Invaluable for states and districts that require teachers to demonstrate reliability on assessments, these online certification modules help you use AEPS accurately to promote real progress for every child.

“An invaluable tool for new users.” —Phoebe Rinkel, KCCTO-KITS Infant Toddler Specialist Network, Kansas

HOW IT WORKS

AEPS users view a narrated training presentation and watch video examples of real children. While observing children in the videos, users take a practice test and review the correct answers. Then, users complete the certification test, observing and scoring items across every area of the AEPS Test. The online system calculates overall results and results by area immediately—and gives users a chance to review the correct answers and rationale for each score. Users who score 80% or higher are certified reliable for three years and can print a certificate. Those with scores that fall below 80% can review the first test and take a second test to try for certification. (A user’s access period for the certification module is valid for one year from the date of purchase.) BENEFITS

Traditional 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. Choose TPBA2 and TPBI2, and you’ll see how much better assessment and intervention can be when they’re based on what children naturally love: play!

DEVELOPMENTAL SCREENING & ASSESSMENT

PLAY-BASED ASSESSMENT WITH CUSTOMIZED INTERVENTIONS

HOW IT HELPS YOUR PROGRAM

1. Better assessments through the power of play. During a fun and naturalistic play session, professionals assess development in 4 key areas while the child plays with family members and a team play facilitator. Because children stay relaxed and engaged, focusing on what they can do instead of what they can’t, TPBA2 elicits more meaningful and accurate results than many traditional assessment strategies. 2. Positive, playful interventions that improve real-world skills. After the play session results are reviewed, it’s easy to link TPBA2’s assessment data to individualized, play-based intervention activities. TPBI2 shows you how to partner with parents to tailor a unique program of activities that work with their child’s strengths, interests, and learning processes. Interventions fit right into the family’s daily routines. CD-ROM

3. Affordable and convenient staff training. Get the Observing Kassandra DVD for a convenient, cost-effective way to practice skills in a simulated TPBA2 session and boost interrater reliability.

Effective Early Intervention The Developmental Systems Approach By Michael J. Guralnick, Ph.D.

After decades of rapid evolution and groundbreaking research, the field of early intervention can be understood within a common framework: the Developmental Systems Approach (DSA). Created by a highly influential leader in the field, Michael Guralnick, this evidence-based, relationship-oriented, family-centered framework focuses on strengthening the quality of key family patterns of interaction that influence a child’s development. In this important volume, Guralnick organizes and analyzes the most current research and developments in early intervention through the lens of the DSA. Starting with a clear explanation of the foundations of early intervention, the book then applies the DSA to four vulnerable populations: children at risk due to biological factors, specifically preterm birth, children at environmental risk, children with developmental delays, and children with autism spectrum disorder. Readers will discover how the DSA can guide the development of effective services and supports for diverse young children and families, and they’ll come away with insights on how to use this framework to improve early intervention programs in their own communities. An invaluable reference for early childhood researchers, faculty, and policy makers, this forward-thinking book is the key to establishing inclusive community-based early intervention systems that nurture each family’s strengths and promote child development. $89.95 | Stock #: 19106P-52889 | 2019 | 384 pages | 7 x 10 | hardcover | ISBN 978-1-68125-288-9

AT A GLANCE DEVELOPERS: Kathryn M. Bigelow, Ph.D., Judith J. Carta, Ph.D., Dwight W. Irvin, Ph.D., & Mary Louise Hemmeter, Ph.D. WHAT IT ASSESSES: How well infant–toddler teachers/child care professionals are implementing key practices consistent with the Pyramid Model for Promoting Social Emotional Competence in Infants and Young Children AGE RANGE: Birth to 3 WHERE IT’S CONDUCTED: Centerbased early childhood settings for infants and toddlers TIME TO COMPLETE: 2 hours for the classroom observation; 15–20 minutes for the interview with the teacher TRAINING: Training will be offered through Brookes on Location and is highly recommended.

A child’s early teachers and caregivers play a vital role in supporting social-emotional development—and that’s why more and more infant and toddler centers are adopting the Pyramid Model. If your center is one of them, TPITOS™ is the essential tool you need to ensure that infant–toddler teachers are using the Pyramid Model practices with fidelity. Modeled after the Teaching Pyramid Observation Tool (TPOT™) for Preschool Classrooms, TPITOS is for early childhood settings caring for infants and toddlers from birth to 3 years of age. Focusing on teacher practices and classroom environment variables, TPITOS measures how well your staff is fostering responsive, nurturing relationships with children and promoting strong social-emotional development in their earliest years. HOW IT WORKS

BEHAVIOR / SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Teaching Pyramid Infant–Toddler Observation Scale (TPITOS™) N for Infant–Toddler Classrooms EW

A trained TPITOS administrator conducts a 2-hour classroom observation, followed by an interview with the teacher being observed. The observer completes three types of items: 1) Observational Items (practices and environmental factors noted during the observation), 2) Interview Items (practices scored based on the teacher’s responses during the interview), and 3) Red Flags (practices that are not consistent with the Pyramid Model). Results of TPITOS show which Pyramid Model practices are being implemented effectively—and what teachers need to focus on to ensure positive social-emotional outcomes for infants and toddlers. BENEFITS

• Ensure effective implementation of the proven PBIS-based Pyramid Model • Support professional development efforts in center-based infant–toddler settings • Strengthen the practices of individual teachers or caregivers, classroom teams, and entire programs • Monitor the success of quality improvement initiatives • Build a foundation for social-emotional competence in the critical first years of life WHAT TO ORDER

Early 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: What words do children already know? • Syntax: What do children understand about how words go together in sentences? • Process: How good are children at learning new language items?

• An online User’s Manual and Quick Start Guide

Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skill (DEMSS)

NEW

By Edythe A. Strand, Ph.D., & Rebecca J. McCauley, Ph.D. When a young child has a severe speech sound disorder—especially one severe enough to affect the child’s intelligibility—it’s critical to determine the degree to which motor speech impairment contributes to the disorder. Now there’s a psychometrically well-supported tool that helps speech-language pathologists do just that.

Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skill (DEMSS) is a dynamic, criterion-referenced assessment designed to help with differential diagnosis of speech sound disorders in children with severely impaired speech production. It’s administered by SLPs in a clinical setting, usually in 30 minutes or less. Developed by one of the leading experts on childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) and an expert on test development, this tool is an efficient way to assess children who have significant speech impairment, especially reduced phonemic and/or phonetic inventories, vowel or prosodic errors, poor speech intelligibility, and/or little to no verbal communication.

COMMUNICATION AND LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT

DYNAMIC ASSESSMENT FOR SPEECH SOUND DISORDERS

USE DEMSS TO:

Diagnose severe speech sound disorders in children 3 and older Facilitate, confirm, or rule out a diagnosis of CAS Estimate the severity of a child’s disorder and what their prognosis might be Inform the development of treatment goals Make decisions about the most effective methods of cueing during treatment Clear and comprehensive guidance is available to DEMSS users. The manual walks SLPs through every step of test administration and scoring, as well as interpretation. The accompanying video tutorial gives users a helpful overview of DEMSS and guides them through two administrations of the entire tool with two different patients: one with mild CAS and one with more severe CAS. • • • • •

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.

• 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

• 2 questionnaires: the Bilingual InputOutput Survey (BIOS) and the Inventory to Assess Language Knowledge (ITALK)

BESA BENEFITS

• Pragmatic activity used to establish rapport with the child and give clinicians an idea of how interactive the child will be during the assessment.

• Culturally and linguistically appropriate

Assessment of Story NEW Comprehension (ASC™) By Trina D. Spencer, Ph.D, BCBA-D, & Howard Goldstein, Ph.D., CCC-SLP Strong listening comprehension during shared storybook reading is a foundational skill—and an indicator that children are ready for the language demands of kindergarten.

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 47). Determine your strengths and needs with the ICP, and then find effective inclusion strategies in Building Blocks. SET COMPONENTS The Inclusive Classroom Profile (ICP) Manual, Research Edition.

Each kit includes the forms observers need to conduct the complete ICP assessment, in a convenient pack of 5.
