13-33B-6. Tools to assess language and literacy development of deaf and hard-of-hearing children. The advisory committee established pursuant to § 13-33B-9 shall recommend tools or assessments to assess the language and literacy development of deaf and hard-of-hearing children. The tools or assessments shall be:

(1) In a format that shows the stages of language development;

(2) Selected for use by educators to track the development of deaf and hard-of-hearing children's expressive and receptive language acquisition and developmental stages toward English literacy;

(3) Selected from existing tools or assessments used to assess the development of all children from birth to five years of age; and

(4) Appropriate, in both content and administration, for use with deaf and hard-of-hearing children.

The tools or assessments may be used by the child's IFSP or IEP team to track the deaf or hard-of-hearing child's progress and to establish or modify IFSP or IEP.
