The Brigance Diagnostic Assessment Of Basic Skills is designed to enable the bilingual, ESL, migrant, and bilingual special needs teacher to identify, develop, implement, and evaluate instructional programs for Spanish-speaking students (preschool, elementary, and middle school). Includes 102 tests for PreK-Gr 8 in the areas of readiness, speech, listening, functional word recognition, oral reading, reading comprehension, word analysis, writing and alphabetizing, numbers and computation, and measurement. The assessment can be used as an indicator of language dominance; as a screening process for identifying achievement level; as an instrument to distinguish whether or not the student's weaknesses are related only to limited English proficiency or to a specific learning disability; and as a guide for developing an IEP. | |
