## Language Screening of Pre-School Bilingual (Spanish-English) Children

**Presented by:** [Aquiles Iglesias, Ph.D., CCC-SLP](https://products.brookespublishing.com/cw_Contributorinfo.aspx?ContribID=1551&Name=Aquiles+Iglesias,Ph.D.,%20CCC-SLP), [Jill De Villiers, Ph.D.](https://products.brookespublishing.com/cw_Contributorinfo.aspx?ContribID=109019&Name=Jill+De%20Villiers,Ph.D.), & [Roberta Michnick Golinkoff, Ph.D.](https://products.brookespublishing.com/cw_Contributorinfo.aspx?ContribID=2670&Name=Roberta+Golinkoff,Ph.D.)

**Age range:** Preschoolers

**Who this chat is for:** Any professional interested in evaluating language skills of bilingual (Spanish/English) preschoolers.

How can you tell if young bilingual children are making age-appropriate language progress? The Quick Interactive Language Screener ™: English–Spanish (QUILS ™: ES) can help—and this free coffee chat will introduce you to this web-based, game-like screener. Developed for use with English–Spanish bilingual children from ages 3 to 5:11, QUILS: ES measures not only language products (what the child already knows in both languages) but also language processes (how the child learns new words and grammar structures). Presented by co-developers of QUILS: ES, this webinar is a must for professionals who work with bilingual preschoolers.

Participants will:

- Review why it’s important to screen bilingual children in two languages
- Discover the rationale for the development of QUILS: ES
- Learn why QUILS: ES measures both the product of learning and the process of learning
- Get an overview of the structure and scoring of QUILS:ES
