Beginning of Year Data Collection
For me, it’s back to school time. Staff went back on Friday and students start on the 27th. For me and school based SLPs, that means gathering data to see where our students are performing. There are obviously a myriad of ways to accomplish this. Good news! I have some resources that you might be interested in from myself and some other TPT sellers.
Here are some of my resources:
Kindergarten Speech & Language Screening helps you get quick data on incoming K students.
Virginia Speech and Language Screenings are great if you’re in Virginia and need some data based on the Standards of Learning:
My Informal Apraxia Assessment is a good way to get data for students with apraxia:
My Informal Language Assessment will help you gather data for those students who don’t do well on standardized tests:
And lastly my Informal 14 Morphemes Screener is FREE and will help you gather information on your youngest students:
