Provides developmental age equivalencies based on the presence or absence of particular skills in comprehensive developmental sections.
The Brigance, developed by Albert H. Brigance and a trademark of Curriculum Associates, Inc. (1991, 1978), provides developmental age equivalencies based on the presence or absence of particular skills in comprehensive developmental sections.
The Brigance provides a graphic profile on progress in these areas. The age equivalencies are based on chronological age norms of typically developing children.
The following developmental areas are assessed:
Pre-ambulatory Motor Skills and Behaviors, Gross Motor Skills and Behaviors, Fine Motor Skills and Behaviors, Self-Help Skills, Speech and Language Skills, General Knowledge and Comprehension, Social and Emotional Development, Basic Reading Skills, Manuscript Writing, and Basic Math.
The Brigance is included for use in the initial an ongoing individual progress assessment to provide age equivalencies for specific areas of need. |
