How can you tell if young bilingual children are making age-appropriate language progress? Use the Quick Interactive Language Screener™: English–Spanish (QUILS™: ES), a web-based, game-like screener for probing the language skills of English–Spanish bilingual children. Developed for use with children from ages 3 through 5 years, QUILS: ES measures not only language products (
what the child already knows in both languages) but also language processes (
how the child learns new words and grammar structures). Like the QUILS screener for children whose primary language is English, QUILS: ES looks at three areas critical to language development and later academic success: vocabulary, syntax, and process.
The QUILS: ES User’s Manual includes all the information you need to conduct the QUILS: ES screener effectively in early childhood settings with children ages 3 through 5 years. You’ll get:
- a helpful introduction to QUILS: ES, including why and how it was developed and what it measures
- in-depth exploration of the three areas screened with QUILS: ES
- a comprehensive walk-through of the QUILS: ES website
- step-by-step guide to conducting the screening, including tips on ensuring children's eligibility, setting up a Student Record, and working with children effectively during the screening process
- detailed guidelines on scoring, reporting, and follow-up
- seven case studies that illuminate QUILS: ES in practice
- a summary of the research and evidence base for QUILS: ES
With this clear and concise manual, you’ll have the background and guidance you need to use QUILS: ES successfully in your early childhood program—and identify English–Spanish bilingual children with potential language delays as early as possible.
