Product Description
Children entering kindergarten or first grade are expected to have sufficient knowledge of vocabulary, phonological awareness, and print knowledge. The Test of Preschool Early Literacy (TOPEL) is a theoretically sound instrument designed to identify preschoolers who are at risk for literacy problems; therefore, allowing early intervention. It is easy to administer; early childhood educators, special educators, psychologists, diagnosticians, and other professionals who are interested in examine skills related to early literacy can administer the test. It provides valid and reliable raw scores, standard scores, and percentiles. The normative sample consists of 842 preschool-aged children (3 to 5 years), residing in 12 states. The TOPEL has three principle uses: Identification: Results from the TOPEL subtests are useful for documenting a child's print, oral vocabulary, and phonological awareness ability Documentation of Progress: Federal statutes, state laws, and/or school district policies at times require documentation of progress Research: Educators can use this instrument to determine intervention-related change or to select students for research participation
