the website and it took me through to the Language Development Survey. But as
far as I am aware, this only looks at language production, right? I'm looking
for a checklist screening method which would pick up children whose receptive
language is apparently poorer than their productive language (I know this is
not so common, but they exist) as well as those children who are delayed in
both productive and receptive language (which kindergarten teachers seem to
find easier to spot).<br>
<br>
But maybe this measure does not exist / is impossible to get kindergarten
teachers to complete in a reliable manner?<br>

Does anyone know of the existence of any parental or kindergarten teacher
checklists for language comprehension in children aged c. 36 months?<br>
<br>
I'm thinking of feasibility of asking kindergarten or preschool teachers to
complete very short comprehension screening instruments containing items such
as:<br>
<br>
Does child understand instructions with about four main words in, for example
"sit teddy on the box" or "kick the big red ball"<br>
Does child follow two-part instructions e.g. "Get your socks and put them
in the basket"<br>
Does child understand simple Wh- question words such as 'who' and where<br>
Does child answer simple questions about objects e.g. "which one do we eat
with"?<br>
Does child understand concepts of size for example 'big / little'<br>
<br>
Many thanks in advance,<br>
