This test is an individually administers test that assessed the intelligence of children from 2;6 months to 7;7 months. The test provides composite scores for verbal comprehension, visual spatial, fluid reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. I would use the PLS-5 to test oral language skills. This test identifies young children (ages birth to 7;11) who have a language delay. The test assesses a wide range of communication skills and preverbal skills. I would use the The Goldman Fristoe: Test of Articulation 2 This test assesses a child 's articulation ability by sampling both spontaneous and imitative speech production. Pictures and verbal cues are used to elicit single word answers that demonstrate common speech sounds. It measures the articulation of speech sounds and identifies and describes the types of articulation errors produced by the child.

The test consist of test levels ranging from 5-14 and age ranges of kindergarten to 9.9th grade. This test would be perfect for Dr. Ann Geers since she is testing at a variety of ages.

8. Two questions for each question to elicit the answer:
Expressive: Does your toddler label or have names for all his/her favorite toys, food, or other
