Description
The Bus Story is a standardized test for the assessment of narrative skills in the clinical and rehabilitation field. The test is applied to children from 3 to 8 years of age and is designed as a screening test, which can be used for the assessment of language production ability, in semantic, grammatical and phonological context.
Narrative ability is not only an indicator of a high degree of linguistic and cognitive competence, but it is also an essential element for a correct development of learning and social skills. Narrative is a developmental skill that grows and evolves from the age of 20 months. Precisely for this reason, some authors consider that the analysis of narrative skills represents one of the most interesting and at the same time valid ways to measure communication skills. Oral comprehension of stories requires not only decoding the literal meaning of what is being heard, but also understanding and sometimes inferring what is not directly indicated in the narrative.
Many authors suggest that the acquisition of good narrative skills in preschool is essential for the proper development of reading and writing skills.
From a clinical point of view, the test can be repeated at least three months after the first application, and its results can be analyzed as predictors of language development.
The test includes the test sheets with the images, an application manual and an answer template. The test is available in the original version (English) and is easily adaptable to other languages.
ColorCards: illustrated decks by objective
ColorCards are organised by objective rather than by age, and that is the key to choosing. The cause and effect deck sets out two-step sequences for working on the link between what happens and what follows. The which one does not belong? deck goes at categorisation and reasoning: look at four pictures and say why one is the odd one out. The series covers further objective-led decks in the same format. Because the material is pictorial, the same deck can work vocabulary, description, narrative and executive function, and it scales to the level of the person without swapping materials. That is why it is used just as much in paediatric therapy, in the classroom and in adult rehabilitation.Children's language assessment tests
On the assessment side, Renfrew's Action Picture Test — first published in 1967 — assesses a child's expressive language from picture plates, and the Bus Story Test focuses on narrative skills: retelling a story and seeing what is retained. These are professional-use tests; the rest of the assessment catalogue is under tests.Why buy Speechmark at Logopedicum?
