TILLS Student Language Scale

Test of Integrated Language and Literacy Skills (TILLS) is a reliable, valid assessment of oral and written language skills in students ages 6–18 years. This streamlined assessment can typically be administered in 90 minutes or less and used to support decisions on appropriate next steps. TILLS is a comprehensive, norm-referenced test that has been standardized for three purposes:

• To identify language and literacy disorders
• To document patterns of relative strengths and weaknesses
• To track changes in language and literacy skills over time

TILLS is ideal for evaluating students suspected of having primary language impairment, suspected of having a learning or reading disability, those known to have an existing condition associated with difficulties in spoken and written language, and students struggling with language and literacy comprehension or social communication skills.

This simple one-page checklist can be used as part of the TILLS, other assessments or on its own to identify students’ strengths and weaknesses in language and literacy skills and other non-language areas. Completed by parents, teachers, and students, the Language Scale shows each party’s perspective on how the student is performing on academic tasks as compared to their same age peers. Though not a pragmatics checklist the scale can provide valuable information on student performance and potential.
