This informal assessment is designed for Deaf children with incomplete first language acquisition due to language deprivation. It helps practitioners gather information about the child’s expressive abilities at both the single-word and short-sentence levels, as well as identify any errors in their productions. The assessment includes 150 vocabulary items (30 animals, 30 food, 30 objects, 30 people, and 30 verbs) and 20 syntax items (10 SV and 10 SVO structures).

Includes:

• Electronic stimuli

• A fillable PDF for data collection

• Additional data sheets to document phonological, semantic, morphological, and articulatory errors noted

• Sample student data

• Sample write-up for your report

• Instructional video in ASL and English on how to use the assessment

Note: We strongly recommend providers who are not fluent in ASL co-administer and co-analyze this assessment with a native ASL speaker.
