Extra convenience with Digital Kit optionTake advantage of the
new CELF-5 Digital Kit, an option that increases portability and
enables you to administer the test from your computer.• All manuals
are delivered on a flash drive.• A full set of paper Record Forms,
Reading and Writing
Supplements, and Observational Rating Scales are included in the
kit.
Excellent flexibility and usability• The CELF-5 offers
streamlined administration,
providing a battery of 16 stand-alone tests. • Complete the
Observational Rating Scales to
identify situations in which poor language skills are evident.
Strategize ways to improve classroom performance.
• If the student doesn’t make progress, conduct a diagnostic
assessment with the CELF-5; administer only the tests you need to
answer referral concerns.
• For added convenience, all verbal stimuli and item analyses
now appear in the Record Form.
Expanded pragmatics testsThe CELF-5 features a robust assessment
of social language skills that is observation-based, unlike many
other pragmatics tests. • With the Pragmatics Profile, obtain
information about
a student’s verbal and nonverbal behaviors from teachers or
parents.
• Use interactive communication activities and the new
Pragmatics Activities Checklist to identify behaviors that cause
the student difficulty in everyday social interactions.
Examination of reading and writingTwo new tests in the CELF-5
help you conduct a targeted assessment of written language. •
Quickly evaluate reading comprehension and writing
skills with just two tests.• Compare written language skills to
oral language
performance.
Accurate scoring made easyThe CELF-5 is available on Q-global™,
Pearson’s new web-based platform for easy, accurate test scoring
and reporting. With Q-global, you can access CELF-5 results
anytime, anywhere!
Q-global offers you:• On-demand, accurate scoring • A choice of
report formats, including
Summary and Graphical reports• 24/7 secure access from any
computer or
tablet connected to the Internet• Unlimited, secure data storage
and retrieval

The CELF-5 Screening Test helps you quickly determine if your
students ages 5–21 need further assessment to identify a language
disorder.
Exceptional tool for universal screening
Exciting benefits• Now includes a pragmatics screening task, in
addition to
items that help you screen morphology, syntax, and
semantics.
• Saves you time, with administration and scoring taking only 15
minutes.
• Reduces administration time for follow-up testing with the
CELF-5; screening items are a subset of the diagnostic CELF-5, so
that you can simply transfer screening test responses to the CELF-5
protocol.
• Presents research-based criterion scores based on a
standardization sample of more than 2,000 students throughout the
United States.
Coming Fall 2014!

Is a language disorder affecting classroom performance?Evaluate
language and communication in context using the Observational
Rating Scale (ORS) and other authentic and descriptive
measures to provide information needed to design classroom
accommodations, adaptations, and enhancements.
If the student does not respond to a variety of classroom
interventions, is his or her performance due to language skill
deficits?
Administer tests appropriate to the student’s age to answer the
referral questions.
If a language disorder is identified, what do I need to know to
plan for intervention?Identify the nature of the disorder by
answering the following questions.
Are there significant differences in comprehension and
expression?Administer tests comprising the Receptive and the
Expressive Index scores.
Are weaknesses related to the interaction of language and
memory?Administer tests comprising the Language Memory index
score.
Are there weaknesses in the areas of morphology, syntax, or
semantics?
Administer tests comprising the Language Content or Language
Structure index scores.
How does the disorder affect written language?
Administer the Reading Comprehension and Structured Writing
tests.
Does the disorder affect social interactions? Complete the
Pragmatics Profile and/or the Pragmatics Activities Checklist.
Based on the CELF-5 test results and additional assessment
information you have collected, what is the best way to address the
student’s needs?
