The Brigance® System Introduction
For nearly 30 years, professionals have trusted the
BRIGANCE System to:
• provide consistent assessment from birth to secondary level
• connect assessment with basic skills instruction
BRIGANCE materials are easy to use.
• Consistent, easy-to-follow format facilitates test administration and
recordkeeping.
• Simplified procedures enhance reliability.
• Assessments require no specialised materials.
• Administration requires no formal training – free online inservices are available at
www.hbe.com.au
BRIGANCE Diagnostic Inventories:
• assess more than 500 developmental, readiness, academic, life and
employability skills
• are criterion-referenced; lED-11 and CIBS-R also provide
normed/standardised test options
• identify performance levels
• set instructional goals
• report progress
• maintain a systematic, easily interpretable history of children's
assessments
BRIGANCE Screens:
• identify children who may have learning delays/disabilities/giftedness
• quickly sample language, motor, social-emotional, and early reading and
maths skills
• facilitate planning individualised instruction
• refer for special services needed to facilitate children's learning or
development
"Immediate assessment is necessary in our demanding and
ever-Changing educational world. This product aids, informs,
and supports the teacher. The benefits and easy application
are an extra plus. Bravo!"

❖ Assessment with some or all items being validated. The same symbol is also used to
identify the individual items that must be administered (and responses recorded in
the Standardised Assessments Record Book) when deriving standard scores,
percentiles, age equivalents or instructional ranges. You must adhere strictly to the
DIRECTIONS for the assessment and any instructions given in the accompanying
Standardised Assessments Record Book if you want to compare the child to the
norms found in the IED–II Standardisation and Validation Manual. In addition, there
are standard methods for scoring—meaning when you start and stop administering
items. This information is provided in the Standardised Assessments Record Book for
each assessment.

F-1 RESPONSE TO AND EXPERIENCE WITH BOOKS
SKILL: Demonstrates skills that indicate a readiness for books and reading.
DIRECTIONS
DEVELOPMENTAL RECORD BOOK: Page 16.
COMPREHENSIVE SKILL SEQUENCE: Page 170.
CLASS RECORD BOOK: Page 29.
ASSESSMENT METHODS: Interviewing the parent(s)/caretaker. Observing the child
being read to and/or looking at a book.
MATERIALS: A setting where the child ordinarily has experiences with books,
such as a library or reading corner. When the assessment cannot be made in a
natural situation, use a picture book for the child below three years of age and a
“read-to-me” type of book of interest to the child more than three years of age.
DISCONTINUE: After failure on three consecutive skills.
TIME: Your discretion.
ACCURACY: Give credit for each positive answer to the criterion question (CQ)
for the respective skill.
NOTES:
1. Correlated BRIGANCE® Prescriptive Teaching Material: Pages 137–151 of
the BRIGANCE Prescriptive Readiness: Strategies and Practice.
2. References: The following references were used to sequence the skills
of responding to books and to validate the developmental ages.

This assessment may be made by
• interviewing the parent(s)/caretaker or a person knowledgeable
about the child’s reaction to books.
• observing the child during activities involving books.
• engaging the child in looking at or “reading” books.
Use your judgment in determining which method or combination of
methods will yield the most valid results.
Most likely, the assessment will be carried out by the interview method.
Thus, criterion questions (CQs) for the interview have been included
in the assessment procedures. The criterion questions will also provide you
with guidance and criteria in assessing the skill by other methods.
Ask the following lead questions for the interview,
Ask: How does ______ respond to books? Does he/she like to look
at books?
Evaluate the responses and record in the Developmental Record Book all skills
that are clearly mastered. If information about specific skills is lacking, ask
the criterion questions (CQs) related to those specific skills. Rephrase and
adapt the questions, if needed.
1–6
1. Turns several pages in a book at once.
CQ: In using a book, does ______ turn the pages one at a time or
several at once?
Note: Give credit also for SKILL 5 if the child turns pages one
at a time.
2. Points to pictures of animals or common objects.
CQ: Does ______ point to pictures of animals or common objects
when you request them?
3. Looks at pictures selectively.
CQ: Does ______ pay close attention to certain pictures
when looking at books?

W RECEPTIVE BODY PARTS
SKILL: Points to or touches body parts as named by someone else.
DIRECTIONS
STANDARDIZED ASSESSMENTS RECORD BOOK: Page 9.
COMPREHENSIVE SKILL SEQUENCE: Page 81.
This assessment is made by asking the child to point to or touch
each body part as it is named.
ASSESSMENT METHOD: Child performance.
(name of body part)
Say: Show me your
.
(name of body part)
?
or Where is your
(name of body part)
or Put your hand on your
MATERIAL: None.
BASAL/CEILING: Five in a row correct/incorrect.
NOTES:
1. Receptive and Expressive: The identification of body parts can be
assessed on two levels—the receptive level (child responds by pointing or
touching) or the expressive level (child responds by verbally stating
name of body part). The latter is a higher-level skill. Thus, if you
anticipate that the child will be successful in “naming body parts,” you
may wish to administer the higher level first and give credit for the
receptive level for each body part named. Doing this may conserve time.
2. Possible Observations: As the child responds to the items, you may
wish to observe for the following.
a. Difficulty in Attending to the Verbal Request: Is the child able to
consistently attend to your requests, or does he/she experience
difficulty in doing so because of such factors as a short attention span?
b. General Awareness of Body Parts: Does the child respond automatically
or hesitantly?
3. The Shy, Reluctant Child: The shy child may have difficulty with
questions beginning with “Where is your ______ ?” If it appears the child
knows a body part but is reluctant to respond, say “Show me your
______ ” or “Point to your ______ .”
?
Pause for a response after each request. Give encouragement if needed
and praise correct responses. Give credit if the child makes an error
but corrects it.
Ask the child to point to the body parts in the following order:
Entry: 10 months
1. eyes
Entry: 2+ years
2. nose
3. mouth
4. hair
5. feet
6. ears

RATIONALE
A child needs to recognise letters in order to begin to learn to read, write and
spell. Some research findings indicate that having knowledge of letter names
prior to the beginning of reading instruction is the best predictor of early school
reading success regardless of the reading method used. However, do not
interpret this to mean that learning to recognise the letters of the alphabet
assures success in reading for all children.

the box and the other half are on the other side. Using the texta, print a
different uppercase or lowercase letter on each peg.
PROCEDURE: Show the child how to attach the pegs to the edge of the box.
Position each peg on the box above the letter that the peg matches. Then,
let the child match the remaining pegs to their corresponding letters.
266

EXTENSION: Once the child can match uppercase or lowercase letters, adapt
the materials so that the activity will require the child to match uppercase
letters to lowercase letters. For example, print the lowercase alphabet on the
box, and print uppercase letters on the pegs.
4. Alphabet Laundry
MATERIALS:
• String.
• Pegs.
• Cards in the shapes of various articles of clothing.
GROUP SIZE: Individual.
PREPARATION: Make a set of uppercase letter cards in the shapes of various
articles of clothing (pants, t-shirt, socks). Write a lowercase letter on each
peg. Attach a string across the width of a bulletin board to resemble a
clothesline.
PROCEDURE: Tell the child that they will hang the clothes on the clothesline
by matching the letters. Demonstrate how to make a match and then let
them hang the rest of the laundry.
5. Can You Find a Match?
MATERIALS: Two identical sets of lowercase and uppercase letter cards.
GROUP SIZE: Small group.
PROCEDURE: Shuffle the cards, and place them facedown on a table in front
of the children. Have one child take a turn selecting any two cards. As the
child selects two cards, they hold up the cards so that the other children can
see them. Have them say the letter names aloud. If they select two identical
cards, they may keep the pair of matching cards and take a second turn to
draw two cards that match. If they select two cards that do not match, they
return them to their original positions, facedown on the table. The next
child then takes a turn. When all the cards have been matched, have the
children count their pairs to see who has the most.
EXTENSION: Have the children match lowercase letter cards to uppercase
letter cards.

16. Reads Uppercase and Lowercase Letters
Readiness: Strategies and Practice
Here are some activities for you to try:
1. Make two sets of lowercase or uppercase flashcards and play a game of
Concentration with your child. Start with only a few pairs of matching letters and
place them facedown. Ask your child to turn two of the cards faceup. If the cards
match, have your child keep them. If they do not match, have your child turn the
cards facedown again. Take turns with your child. When all the cards are matched,
the game is over. As your child becomes more comfortable with the game, increase
the number of matching letters. Your child can also play this game alone.
2. Print lowercase or uppercase letters on a blackboard or a sheet of paper. Ask
your child to point out specific letters that you name.
3. Ask your child to find a particular letter in old magazines or newspapers and
have them cut and paste each matching letter onto a sheet of paper.
4. Play Alphabet Bingo. Make several bingo cards with five rows of five letters each.
Then, write each letter of the alphabet on a small piece of cardboard and put the
alphabet squares in a container. Now you are ready to play Alphabet Bingo with
your child.
Give your child a bingo card and keep one for yourself. Have place markers
(coins, pebbles) available. Draw one letter at a time from the container and read it
aloud. If you or your child finds that letter on either of your cards, cover that
letter with a place marker. The first player to cover a row horizontally, vertically
or diagonally, yells, ‘Bingo!’
5. As you ride in the car or on a bus, ask your child to identify letters in traffic
signs. On a long trip, try to find all the letters of the alphabet by looking at signs
and number plates.
6. Read books with your child that deal with the alphabet. Here are a few
suggestions:
Bond, Michael. Paddington’s ABC.
Carter, David. Alpha Bugs.
Hoban, Tana. 26 Letters and 99 Cents.
Turner, Gwenda. Australian ABC.
Your child is learning to read the lowercase and uppercase letters of the
alphabet. You can help your child by practising a few activities together at home.

❖ Assessment with some or all items being validated. The same symbol is also used to
identify the individual items that must be administered (and responses recorded in
the Standardised Assessments Record Book) when deriving standard scores,
percentiles, age equivalents or instructional ranges. You must adhere strictly to the
DIRECTIONS for the assessment and any instructions given in the accompanying
Standardised Assessments Record Book if you want to compare the child to the
norms found in the IED–II Standardisation and Validation Manual. In addition, there
are standard methods for scoring—meaning when you start and stop administering
items. This information is provided in the Standardised Assessments Record Book for
each assessment.

G-9 READS WORDS WITH COMMON ENDINGS (CONTINUED)
SKILL: Reads words with common endings.
DIRECTIONS
STUDENT RECORD BOOK: Page 16.
This assessment is made by asking the student to read the groups of words
with common endings on S-210, S-213, and S-214.
CLASS RECORD BOOK: Page 21.
ASSESSMENT METHOD: Individual oral response.
MATERIALS: S-210, S-213, and S-214.
DISCONTINUE: Your discretion, or after failure on two consecutive endings.
TIME: Your discretion, or approximately five seconds per response.
ACCURACY: 3/3 (100%) or 1/1 (100%). (See OPTIONAL CRITERIA.)
OPTIONAL CRITERIA: The third word for each common ending is a nonsense word.
You may wish to ask the student to pronounce only the nonsense word and give
credit if the student responds correctly. Allow for self-correcting. Using this criteria
will require less assessment time. (See NOTE 2 on page 210.) If after evaluating the
response to the third word (the nonsense word), you question the student’s mastery
of the skill, you should administer the remaining two words for the ending sound.
Point to the words on S-214, and
Say: The words in each group rhyme. They have the same ending.
I want you to read the three words in each group of words.
The third word in each group is not a real word. Try your
best to sound out this word.
If necessary, give the student help with the initial consonant.
If you wish to have the student pronounce only the nonsense word
(the third word in each group of words),
Say: I want you to read the last word in each group of words. These words
are not real words. Try your best to sound out these nonsense words.
NOTES: (See NOTES on pages 210–11.)
