This is a replacement Examiner's Manual for ELLA. The Emerging Literacy & Language Assessment (ELLA) evaluates the skills children ages 4;6 to 9;11 need to become proficient readers. The ELLA meets Early Reading First requirements for educators needing to use evidence-based diagnostic tools to identify children at risk for reading failure. The manual includes a Curriculum and Classroom Connection for each of the 22 subtests and case studies to help you establish treatment and IEP goals. Individual administration for ages 4;6 – 5;5 (all three sections) takes approximately 30-45 minutes, and for ages 5;6 – 9;11 (all three sections) takes approximately 60 minutes. The ELLA is norm- and criterion-referenced. Manual contains Administration instructions, Standardization Data, and tables for Standard Scores, Confidence Intervals, Percentile Ranks, Means, and Age Equivalents.
