Listening comprehension during shared storybook reading is a foundational skill—and an indicator that children are ready for the language demands of kindergarten. With the Assessment of Story Comprehension (ASC), pre-K programs finally have a fast, easy way to
- measure the story comprehension of children ages 3-5
- identify children who may need language intervention
- monitor the progress of children receiving intervention
- determine when comprehension has meaningfully improved
A quick check that takesjust 3 minutes to complete, the ASC is the sensitive, reliable tool that programs need to test the comprehension skills of all young learners and pick up even small improvements as the school year progresses. It’’s an essential tool for assessing and monitoring a wide range of young children, including those with language impairments and developmental disabilities, children at risk for early literacy difficulties, and young English language learners (ELLs). Used on its own or in tandem withStory Friends(tm)andPAth to Literacy, the ASC is the key to assessing and improving an essential building block of reading success and school readiness.
