This book contains informal, non-standardized procedures and tools for assessing comprehension. Procedures are organized developmentally from 8 months to 10 years. Bridge School staff often use this resource selectively as different sections and procedures may apply to individual students. Many procedures require staff to make adaptations for students with physical disabilities. The book provides some stimulus materials and data collection forms.
