An ideal companion to the groundbreaking TILLS test! Screen with
SLS, and then follow up and diagnose with TILLS. 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/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, including
dyslexia, 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 teacher's and the
parents' and student's perspectives on it, 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 field of language and literacy assessment and school social
work. Fast and easy: The three-part SLS can be completed in just 3
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. Simple scoring: The
12-item rating scale section of the SLS incorporates descriptive
statements that are rated on a scale of 1 to 7 from not good to
very good. The first eight items on the scale ask about core
language and literacy abilities that represent the 2 language
levels x 4 language modalities assessed with TILLS. When teachers
or parents rate more than two areas on items 1-8 as less than 5,
SLS screening results indicate the student is at risk and needs
further assessment. Perfect for use with TILLS!: The SLS is an
ideal companion to the groundbreaking TILLS test, which assesses
oral and written language skills in students ages 6—18 years.
Gather teacher and parent ratings for whole classes of students
with the SLS, and if results indicate that a student is at risk,
follow up with TILLS assessment and other forms of
language/literacy assessment. What's in this kit?: One SLS User's
Manual One gummed tablet of 50 TILLS™ Student Language Scale
forms One SLS Quick Start Guide with basic instructions on
administering and scoring
