Illustrated by
Susan McLean Deagle
The new Apple Tree Curriculum for Developing
Written Language is a language system that provides a sequence of basic
procedures for the construction and development of Basic English sentence
structures. Although this curriculum was designed for the hearing impaired, it
is also appropriate for students learning English as a second language and those
with specific language impairments. The Apple Tree Program reinforces and builds
on material introduced and allows for development of vocabulary and related
concepts. Small steps ensure students’ success and continuous learning. The
result is improved self-image and the motivation to master more
material.
Target Group: Primary/Intermediate grades; students with a
reading level of approximately 1.5-3.0

Adaptive
Behavior Inventory (ABI)
Ages: 6 through
18
Testing Time: Under 30 minutes
Administration: Individual
The
ABI evaluates the functional daily living skills of school-age children (ages
6-0 to 18-11) and helps identify students believed to be mentally retarded or
emotionally disturbed. Both the ABI and the ABI-Short Form are completed by the
classroom teacher or other professional staff, and both yield Adaptive Behavior
Quotients, standard scores, and percentile ranks.
The tests were
standardized on 1,296 nondisabled students and 1,076 students with mental
retardation in 21 states. The demographic characteristics of the normal
intelligence standardization group approximate the eight major characteristics
reported in the U.S. census.
In addition, the mentally retarded sample is
representative across several variables unique to the retarded population in
this country. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability are in the .80s
and .90s at most ages. Evidence of concurrent and construct validity also is
provided.

AAMR-Adaptive Behavior Scales-School (ABS-S:2)
OUR PRICE $220.00
Ages: 3-0 through 18-11
Testing Time: 15-30 minutes
Administration: Individual
Since its initial publication, investigators have shown the usefulness of
the Adaptive Behavior Scales-School: Second Edition for assessing the current
functioning of children being evaluated for evidence of mental retardation
and for evaluating adaptive behavior characteristics of children with autism
and differentiating children with behavior disorders who require special education
assistance from those with behavior problems who can be educated in regular
class programs.
The 1993 revision, the ABS-S:2, builds upon the authors’ evidence for the
scale’s reliability and validity and capitalizes on the scientific evidence
available. The current scale is divided into two parts. Part One focuses on
personal independence and is designed to evaluate coping skills considered
important to independence and responsibility in daily living. The skills within
Part One are grouped into nine behavior domains: Independent Functioning,
Physical Development, Economic Activity, Language Development, Numbers and
Time, Prevocational/Vocational Activity, Self-Direction, Responsibility, and
Socialization.
Part Two contains content related to social maladaptation. The behaviors assessed
were identified through a survey of the social expectations placed upon persons
with mental retardation in public and special schools, public and private
residential institutions, and the full range of local rehabilitative and recreational
services. The descriptions of those expectations were obtained from an analysis
of a large number of “critical incident” reports provided by personnel in
residential, community, and school settings. The behaviors in Part Two are
assigned to seven domains, which are measures of those adaptive behaviors
that relate to the manifestation of personality and behavior disorders: Social
Behavior, Conformity, Trustworthiness, Stereotyped and Hyperactive Behavior,
Self-Abusive Behavior, Social Engagement, and Disturbing Interpersonal Behavior.
Numerous factor analyses have been conducted on the Adaptive Behavior Scales
domains since the scale was first published. These studies consistently identify
five factors: Personal Self-Sufficiency, Community Self-Sufficiency, Personal-Social
Responsibility, Social Adjustment, and Personal Adjustment.
Domain raw scores are converted to standard scores (M = 10, SD = 3) and percentiles.
Factor raw scores are used to generate quotients (M = 100, SD = 15) and percentiles.
The scale’s normative sample consists of more than 2,000 persons from 31 states
with developmental disabilities attending public schools and more than 1,000
students who have no disabilities. The test has been examined extensively
with respect to reliability and validity. Internal consistency reliabilities
and stability for all scores exceed .8.

Asperger Syndrome Diagnostic Scale [ASDS]
Ages: 5 through
18
Testing Time: 10 to 15 minutes
Administration: Individual
The
Asperger Syndrome Diagnostic Scale (ASDS) is a quick, easy-to-use rating scale
that can help you determine whether a child has Asperger Syndrome. Anyone who
knows the child or youth well can complete this scale. Parents, teachers,
siblings, paraeducators, speech language pathologists, psychologists,
psychiatrists, and other professionals can answer the 50 yes/no items in 10 to
15 minutes.
Designed to identify Asperger Syndrome in children ages 5
through 18, this instrument provides an AS Quotient that reveals the likelihood
that an individual has Asperger Syndrome. The 50 items that constitute the ASDS
were drawn from five specific areas of behavior: cognitive, maladaptive,
language, social, and sensorimotor.
Diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome is
difficult because the characteristics of the disorder often resemble those of
autism, behavior disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and
learning disabilities. The ASDS serves an important function by quickly allowing
you to determine whether a child or adolescent is likely to have Asperger
Syndrome.
The first test of its kind, the ASDS was normed on 115 persons
with Asperger Syndrome, autism, learning disabilities, behavior disorders, and
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder from across the United States. The
sample ranged in age from 5 to 18. The ASDS meets reliability and validity
criteria established by the professional assessment community.
Therefore, by comparing an individual¹s score with the normative sample,
an examiner can establish the probability that the individual has Asperger
Syndrome. Low AS Quotients are indicative of persons with little or no known
pathology, whereas higher scores are increasingly more indicative of Asperger
Syndrome.
All items included in the ASDS represent behaviors that are
symptomatic of Asperger Syndrome, and all are summed to produce the total score.
The scores from the five subtests present the examiner with information of
clinical interest regarding an individual's performance in comparison to that of
others with Asperger Syndrome. The total score has strong diagnostic value in
identifying individuals with Asperger Syndrome and is the only score to be used
when determining the likelihood of Asperger Syndrome. This contributes greatly
to ease of administration and cuts down on otherwise time-consuming testing
procedures.
The ASDS can be used with confidence to (a) identify persons
who have Asperger Syndrome, (b) document behavioral progress as a consequence of
special intervention programs, (c) target goals for change and intervention on
the student's Individualized Education Program (IEP), and (d) measure Asperger
Syndrome for research purposes. Because the ASDS is based on observations, the
test results are valid only when the rater knows the examinee well; that is, the
examiner has had regular, sustained contact with the examinee for at least 2
weeks.
Raw scores are converted to percentile and standard scores. These
scores are the most important information associated with an individual's ASDS
performance, and analysis of them, augmented by additional test information,
direct information of behavior, and knowledge acquired from other sources, will
result in proper diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome.

Behavioral and Emotional Rating Scale (BERS-2)
Ages: 5-0 through 18-11
Testing Time: 10
minutes
Administration: Individual
Designed for use in schools,
mental health clinics, juvenile justice settings, and child welfare agencies,
the Behavioral and Emotional Rating Scale, Second Edition (BERS-2) helps to
measure the personal strengths and competencies of children ages 5-0 through
18-11. The BERS-2 is a multi-modal assessment system that measures the child's
behavior from three perspectives: the child (Youth Rating Scale), parent (Parent
Rating Scale), and teacher or other professional (Teacher Rating Scale). The
BERS-2 measures several aspects of a child's strength: interpersonal strength,
involvement with family, intrapersonal strength, school functioning, affective
strength, and career strength. The scale can be completed in approximately 10
minutes. Information from the BERS-2 is useful in evaluating children for
prereferral services, in placing children for specialized services, and in
measuring the outcomes of services. The BERS-2 can identify children's
individual behavior and emotional strengths and the areas in which individual
strengths need to be developed. The BERS-2 has been widely adopted by local,
state, and federal agencies to evaluate the outcomes of services. The BERS-2 has
been used in several national studies of children with and without disabilities.
All of the BERS-2 scales were normed on representative samples of
children without disabilities and the BERS-2 Teacher Rating Scale was normed on
children with emotional and behavioral disorders. Demographics of the
standardization samples are reported in the manual by age, gender, geographic
location, race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. Separate norms are
available on the teacher rating scale for children diagnosed with emotional and
behavioral disorders.
The internal consistency reliability of the BERS-2
subtests was established with children without disabilities and with children
who were emotionally disturbed. Coefficients exceeded .80 for each subtest and
.95 for the overall score. Over 15 studies have confirmed the BERS's content,
construct, and criterion-related validity.

Behavior
Rating Profile (BRP-2)
Ages: 6-6 through 18-6
Testing Time: 20 minutes
Administration: Individual
The BRP-2 is
a unique battery of six norm-referenced instruments that provides different
evaluations of a student’s behavior at home, at school, and in interpersonal
relationships from the varied perspectives of parents, teachers, peers, and the
target students themselves.
The responses allow examiners to test
different diagnostic hypotheses when confronted with reports of problem
behavior. The BRP2 can identify students whose behavior is perceived to be
deviant, the settings in which behavior problems are prominent, and the persons
whose perceptions of a student's behavior are different from those of other
respondents.
The BRP-2 is appropriate for students in Grades 1 through
12. The BRP2 components were all normed individually on large, representative
populations. The Student Rating Scales normative group included 2,682 students
residing in 26 states. The Parent Rating Scales were completed by 1,948 parents
in 19 different states, and the Teacher Rating Scales were normed on a group of
1,452 teachers from 26 states. The internal consistency reliability of the BRP-2
components was established with normal subjects and with groups of students who
were learning disabled and emo-tionally disturbed. Coefficients generally exceed
.80 at all ages. Stability reliability coefficients are also reported. Extensive
evidence of validity is reported in the manual. Correlations between the BRP2
components and other measures of behavior are reported.

Evaluating Acquired Skills in Communication-Revised (EASIC-R)
Anita Marcott Riley
Ages: 3 months through 6 years
Testing Time: 15 to 30 minutes
Administration: Individual
Evaluating Acquired Skills in Communication (EASIC) is an inventory that was
developed to measure spoken language (receptive and expressive) of children
with autism aged 3 months to 6 years. It was field-tested on 200 individuals
with autism over a 6 year period. Although the materials were developed for
persons with autism, the EASIC has also been used successfully with all kinds
of people who have developmental language delays.
The EASIC assesses semantics, syntax, morphology, and pragmatics communication
skills at five levels:
· Pre-Language—before meaningful speech
· Receptive I—understanding simple noun labels, action verbs, and basic concepts
· Expressive I —emerging modes of communication
· Receptive II—understanding more complex language functions
· Expressive II—using a more complex level of communication
Once the assessment is completed, the EASIC's results can be displayed on
the Skills Profile. This form provides space for displaying the results from
up to five assessments, taken over time, and provides a means for showing
the changes that have occurred from one testing to the next. In addition,
the results can be portrayed on the Developmental Age Chart, where communication
skills are arranged in easy to difficult order along with age ranges at which
children normally acquire each described skill. Finally, 142 Goals and Objectives
cards are provided. These cards are directly tied to the skills described
in the inventory and can be used in the development of intervention plans.

Handwriting Development Remedial Activities
(HDRA)
Karen Gardner Codding, Morrison F.
Gardner
Ages 5 years to 11 years
These remedial activities were
developed primarily to improve a child’s legibility of writing letters, words,
sentences, and numbers; they were also developed to aid therapists (occupational
therapists, resource specialists, classroom teachers, psychologists, language
specialists, and other professionals) in treating these children who have
problems in handwriting. These remedial activities may remediate a child’s low
performance on any one of the two subtests of the Test of Handwriting Skills.
These remedial activities are divided into manuscript and cursive, upper case
and lower case letters. These remedial activities also include activities for
remediating a child’s problem in motorically writing numbers. In developing
these remedial activities a great deal of thought and consideration was given to
the range of activities needed to improve a child’s handwriting. These remedial
activities are not difficult to administer since the directions are simple and
easily understood. The remedial activities can be administered to an individual
child or to a group of children or to an entire class. These remedial activities
can be used on a daily basis as part of the class curriculum.

Jordan
Dyslexia Assessment/Reading Program - Second Edition Second
Edition
The Jordan Dyslexia
Assessment/Reading Program brings together current knowledge from the
“decade of the brain” about how the brain learns and remembers. This program
begins by identifying layers of overlapping problems that interfere with
learning to read. The Jordan Dyslexia Assessment/Reading Program reviews
the critical role that emotions and feelings play in learning or failing to
learn. New information about how permanent memory develops and why certain
individuals fail to remember also is included.
Before they start teaching
reading skills, instructors discover how each student learns, or fails to
learn, by using 11 screening tests that identify specific reasons why individuals
struggle with reading skills:
With this information, both
students and instructors understand why previous encounters with literacy skills
were ineffective. Understanding why learning has been difficult replaces old
dread and fear of learning with hope. Knowing how to learn to read makes it
possible to approach reading safely without fear of failure.
The Jordan Dyslexia
Assessment/Reading Program guides students step by step through carefully
structured lessons that integrate four learning modalities: sight, speech,
hearing, touch. Each of the 75 lessons includes structured review of previous
skills, introduction of a new literacy skill, and folllow-up practice to build
permanent memory of that skill. In each lesson, the student is taught word
analysis through seeing the word, saying it, hearing it, and writing or typing
it. This procedure allows dyslexic individuals to compensate for problems that
normally block reading and spelling skills.
TARGET GROUP: Students of any age who show signs of dyslexia.

The Lindamood
Phoneme Sequencing Program for Reading, Spelling & Speech - Third Edition
[LiPS]
Patricia Lindamood & Phyllis
Lindamood
This newly revised program successfully develops phoneme
awareness - the ability to identify individual sounds and their order within
words - for competence in reading, spelling, and speech. The program provides
manipulatives, step-by-step proven procedures that promote self-correction, and
scripted examples of the Socratic questioning process, which helps students
'discover' phonemic concepts.
The LiPS program enables self-correction
in spoken and written language. It begins at the oral level with problem-solving
activities and extends to multisyllabic and contextual levels of reading and
spelling. Focusing on the conscious processing of sensory information that
enables metacognitive phonemic awareness, the LiPS program meets the needs of
the significant proportion of children and adults who do not develop phonemic
awareness through traditional instruction.
Application of the LiPS
program in grades K - 3 significantly reduces grade retention and the need for
referral for other services such as speech therapy, special education, and
remedial reading. Individuals with organic conditions such as cerebral palsy,
cleft palate, hearing impairment, developmental delay and traumatic brain injury
have been found to make further development in spoken and written language
performance when phonemic awareness is stimulated through these
sensory-cognitive procedures.

Mutual Respect Inventories
James Battle, Ph.D.R. PSYCH.
The Mutual Respect Inventories are self-report scales with a continuum ranging from always to never that have demonstrated effectiveness in measuring examinees' perceptions regarding the amount of respect they feel they provide others while interacting with them. The scales were developed over a five year period while working with students and clients. The Mutual Respect Inventories were developed for use by teachers, counselors, therapists, social workers and youth workers specializing in a wide variety of areas. They are also useful to researchers who can employ them with ease in their efforts to determine the effectiveness of independent variables tested in empirical studies. There are nine (9) forms of the inventories and children and adults with grade three level and above reading skills can follow the directions on the test forms independently and respond "appropriately" to the items.

Phonological
Awareness Skills Program (PASP)
(Formerly the Green Readiness Book)
The Phonological
Awareness Skills Program (PASP) assesses and teaches the fundamental analysis
and organization abilities that enable children to make sense out of reading and
spelling. PASP is an updated and expanded version of the auditory skills
component (Green Book) of PREP (which focused on analysis skills; PASP addresses
analysis and organization skills). PASP is intended for use by speech
pathologists, remedial reading specialists, and teachers who work with
pre-kindergarten through elementary school-aged children with LD, ADD, or
dyslexia, individually or in groups.
PASP consists of two components:
the Test, which enables you to identify and determine the performance
(instructional) level of those children who lack adequate phonological awareness
skills; and the Curriculum, which provides methods for training those skills.
The Curriculum is divided into two major sections: activities to improve
phonological analysis and organization skills and activities to teach the words
(verbal organizers) that support this process. Many of the activities are
accompanied by worksheets that may be given to parents for supplemental use at
home.

Stetson Spelling
Program: Second Edition
Elton Stetson
In
this effective program, the 3,000 words most frequently used in writing are
taught in the order that they are most often used. The words are divided into 15
levels, each further divided into lessons of 10 to 16 words. Each level has a
pretest and posttest, and review lessons are included.
The program uses
only strategies proven most effective: pretesting, immediate feedback and
self-correction, visual imagery of the whole word, as well as spelling clusters,
mnemonics, and visual memory. Research comparing the program with traditional
spelling textbook programs showed an average increase of 91% on weekly test
scores, 42% on tests of long-term memory, and 56% on standardized tests of
written spelling.
The Instructor's Manual gives complete instructions on
use of the program. All word lists and student support materials are on
blackline masters and use primary-size letters. Teachers can make transparencies
or duplicate for handouts. Support materials include Pretest and Posttest Forms,
Personal Spelling Dictionary, Spelling Certificate, and Individual Growth
Chart.

Visual-Motor Development Remedial
Activities [VMDRA]
Karen Gardner Codding,
Morrison F. Gardner
The Visual-Motor Development Remedial Activities
were designed to remediate various areas of visual-motor dysfunctioning
(neuro-sensory integration disorders). These remedial activities are comprised
of various remedial methods which are helpful in improving: angulation skills,
curve/sinusoidal skills, line skills, geometric forms (non-language symbols),
and written language skills. It is felt that a child’s specific area(s) of low
or poor visual-motor functioning, as determined by the Test of Visual-Motor
Skills, will usually fall into one or more of the above five areas.
Each
of the five packages of remedial activities contains an adequate number of
worksheets so that therapists do not have to reproduce by any means any one of
these forms. The VMDRA were developed to be used by optometrists, occupational
therapists, remedial specialists, resource specialists, learning specialists,
teachers, and visual-motor therapists with clients aged 3 through 12 years.
In order to determine a child’s visual-motor function or skills,
examiners need to administer a visual-motor test and for this type of testing.
The Test of Visual-Motor Skills was developed for this purpose - described in
this catalogue.
