List and discuss the four guided principles of intervention at the Language for Learning (L4L) stage.

~short answer~

When serving children with language disorders, you might use a standardized assessment for a number of reasons. Please choose one language-specific standardized assessment, describe it thoroughly by stating the following: name, age appropriateness, areas of assessment, goal for use, and how it is administered.

~short answer~

On a separate piece of paper, demonstrate your understanding and use of a graphic organizer for semantics intervention by drawing and filling in the organizer/chart. You may choose any of the ones discussed in class.
