Rationale
designed for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing learners from 5 to 21 years old. The
checklist was created for learners from kindergarten to 12th grade, and in some
case, postsecondary program. The checklist is available for educators and ASL
the checklist were determined based on most common words used at the
school level. Results from the Lexicalized Sign Production assessment may be
used for IEP meetings to support educators and ASL specialists’ findings and
reports on the learners’ skills on producing lexicalized signs. They will benefit
parents and administrators to know where their children are at. According to
Baker (Baker), deaf children will become better readers if they have early
the assessor will provide a picture for each lexicalized sign item. The learner will
be asked to produce for each picture. Assessments may be given every three
lexicalized signs with no difficulty. For a learner with developing skills, he or she
fingerspelling the first one or two letters, but is not capable of completing
fingerspelling the whole word. When it comes to skills not yet emerging, a
learner may not respond or shares a phrase like, “I don’t know.” There are some
blank boxes in the checklist for the assessor to add in case he or she notices
the learner producing some lexicalized items other than the words listed in the
checklist.
This checklist also applies to learners coming to the United States from
different countries. It helps learners monitor their skills as they acquire ASL. To
observed. Assessors should rely on their checklists with their checks or some
use information to assist them with their reports in annual or triennial IEPs.
