Language learning is the key that opens almost every door for young children! This is especially try for dual language learners. Knowing how where all children are in their developmental trajectory is important for planning to meet their needs. Screening bilingual language learners is challenging. But, there are strategies you can use to screen for language development that spans the language barriers.
In this important webinar, language experts Aquiles Iglesias, Ph.D., Jill de Villiers, Ph.D., and Roberta Michnick Golinkoff, Ph.D., will highlight the importance of monitoring the language skills of English–Spanish bilingual preschoolers and providing needed supports early. They’ll share best practices for screening bilingual preschoolers, including what to measure, when to screen, and how to screen. Available screening tools will be discussed, including the new Quick Interactive Language Screener: English–Spanish (QUILS: ES).
