Why you’ll love Literacy Lab! Literacy Lab provides a huge variety of richly illustrated books and activities. Literacy Lab contains over 1,000 richly illustrated books and activities that support the “repetition with variety” that research suggests for literacy instruction.
Literacy Lab includes assessment tools that help monitor students’ progress. These easy to administer assessments can be used to determine where a student should start within Literacy Lab, how they are progressing and where they need more assistance.
Literacy Lab offers both the simplicity of a structured sequence and the flexibility to let teachers choose the path. To support flexibility in instruction, Literacy Lab can be applied in a structured and predictable way that simply requires following the directions of a preset sequence, or, it can be tailored to directly address targeted needs by allowing the teacher to select the order of activities to be completed.
Literacy Lab topic areas are fun and engaging for learners of all ages.

DAYC: Developmental Assessment of Young Children
PTONI: Primary Test of Nonverbal Intelligence
Use the Developmental Assessment of Young Children (DAYC) to identify children birth through 5-11 with possible delays in the domains of cognition, communication, social emotional development, physical development, and adaptive behavior. You’ll have five subtests (one for each of the above domains) that you can administer separately or as a comprehensive battery to individual children in about 10 to 20 minutes. You will be able to identify infants and young children who may benefit from early intervention.
The Primary Test of Nonverbal Intelligence (PTONI) is a theoretically sound, research-based method of assessing reasoning abilities in young children. Normed on a culturally and ethnically diverse demographic sample of 1,010 children, the test can be used to identify both severe intellectual deficits and superior cognitive intelligence, and can help estimate future school success based on family history, educational background and personality traits. Minimal oral directions and pointing-response format make it one of the simplest and most easily understood of all nonverbal intelligence tests.

Attention Getter Attention Getter is an engaging software program that uses music and morphing movement to get your students’ attention. Use it to improve visual and auditory attention, increase independent work skills and improve intentionality and control. Each image morphs in front of the students’ eyes, and each image pair or group is related, encouraging students to make a conceptual link between the images. For example, the program will show a king and a lion, helping students make the connection that the lion is the king of the jungle. These images open the door to language and vocabulary concepts, and images are paired with music to keep students engaged.
ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY
Attention Teens Based on the popular Attention Getter, Attention Teens offers more delightful and exciting images and music to engage the older student.

How Do You Use Them?
Why Do You Use Them?
Students can hold, hug or squeeze the Kimochi and talk through what they are feeling. And, because emotions can change quickly, students can store the small pillows in the special pocket on the Kimochi.
When students can communicate their feelings effectively, they build confidence, self-esteem and strong relationships.
• Kimochi characters come with small pillows with a feeling (like happy, sad, silly, brave and more) printed on one side, and a corresponding facial expressions on the other.
MORE KIMOCHIS™?
• Have students choose the Kimochi character that best represents their emotions, and if they want to say more, they can stick them into the pouch of their favorite Kimochi character.

See-Scape The See-Scape helps you detect nasal emission of air during speech, providing instant feedback that eliminates the need for lengthy explanations of the problem to the client, and gives an objective assessment of nasal emission. See-Scape gives an indication of air flow pressure rather than nasality, and in so doing, indicates a lack of velopharyngeal competence that is perceived as hypernasality. Includes two sets and a manual with directions for use, testing procedure and treatment approach. GREAT FOR
