Teacher Assessment of Spoken Language (TASL)<br />

(Moog and Biedenstein, 1998)<br />

Description: <strong>The</strong> TASL is a teacher rating <strong>for</strong>m which was designed to rate the<br />

sentence structure of children who are deaf and hard of hearing. <strong>The</strong> TASL<br />

evaluates the development of spoken language from first words through the use<br />

of complex sentences. A manual accompanies the rating <strong>for</strong>ms and describes<br />

the criteria <strong>for</strong> rating.<br />

(Bowers, Huisingh, LoGiudice, and Orman, 2007)<br />

and overall semantic and vocabulary abilities, a thorough discussion of<br />
