   Children's Publishing :: Literacy :: TOPEL: Test of Preschool Early Literacy Kit PE12440 (CLON)

  TOPEL: Test of Preschool Early Literacy Kit PE12440 (CLON) #431
TOPEL: Test of Preschool Early Literacy Kit PE12440 (CLON)  Children entering kindergarten or first grade are expected to have sufficient knowledge of vocabulary, phonological awareness, and print knowledge. Early childhood educators, special educators, psychologists, diagnosticians, and other professionals who are interested in examine skills related to early literacy can administer the test to determine if a child is at risk for literacy problems.

The TOPEL has three principal uses:
1. Identification: Results from the TOPEL subtests are useful for documentating a child's print, oral vocabulary, and phonological awareness ability.
2. Documentation of Progress: Federal statutes, state laws, and/or school district policies at times require documentation of progress.
3. Research: Educators can use this instrument to determine intervention-related change or to select students for research participation.

The TOPEL has the following three subtests. All the results of which are then combined to determine the "Composite Score" that ultimately best represents a child's emergent literacy skills:
> Subtest 1: Print Knowledge - 36 items; meaures alphabet knowledge and early knowledge about written language conventions and form; the child is asked to identify letters and written words, point to specific letters, names specific letters, identify letters associated with specific sounds, and say sounds associated with specific letters.
> Subtest 2: Definitional Vocabulary - 35 items; measures single-word oral vocabulary and definitional vocabulary (assesses both surface and deep vocabulary knowledge); the child is shown a picture and asked to tell what the picture is, and to describe one of its important features.
> Subtest 3: Phonological Awareness - 27 items; meaures word elision and blending abilities; the child is asked to say a word, then say what is left after dropping out specific sounds (elision) for the first 12 items; the child is asked to listen to separate sounds and combine them to form a word (blending) for the remaining 15 items.
