Here's what buyers have said:
Teaching Tops It All said, "It is so difficult to find an assessment to use when working with high school students with moderate disabilities. This was such a nice resource that is practical and explores function use of language."
Katie said, "Great resource; exactly what I needed for more moderate learning difficulties. Easy to pull goals, gather baseline data and progress monitor."
AshleytheSLP said "Just what I needed to assess some of my high school life skill students abilities. I was amazed at what I didn't know they didn't know! Format was easy to use and quick to prep (thanks Teach Speech for always making things so simple!). Would recommend to any middle or high school therapist."
