Article #20

Oil Spills and the Environment


Oil is an important source of energy that is becoming more expensive. Oil is used
to produce the fuel we use in our cars and trucks. When oil prices increase, the price of
gasoline increases.
We depend on oil from from other parts of the world. Accidents sometimes occur when
oil is transported in large ocean vessels. These accidents may cause oil tanks to puncture.
Some oil tanks are located deep in the ocean. A major catastrophe can occur if these tanks
puncture. It is not easy to plug up oil tanks located deep in the ocean.
The oil spill caused by these leaks poses a threat to ocean life. A spill is detrimental
to sea creatures because they cannot clean the oil from their bodies. Fish often die from

The articles may be presented orally to


students. Worksheet activities challenge
students to respond to questions, define
words, and use vocabulary in sentences. Words such as
hazardous, regulations, survival, efficient, and qualifications are
targeted. A CD with the complete book is also available.

exposure to large amounts of oil. Birds may die because the oil prevents them from flying.
If they cannot fly, they cannot catch their food. Some people earn their income by finshing
and selling the fish that they catch. If the ocean is contaminated, the fish may not be
healthy to eat.
Many people like to surf or swim in the ocean. Following an oil spill, the water in the
ocean may be hazardous to your health. It is important to plug up tanks that are leaking
oil and to clean up following a major spill.
Oil spills have caused serious problems for the environment. It can take years for the
environment to recover from this type of pollution. We need to do everything that we can
to prevent oil spills from occurring.

Save $10
only $59.00

Here is a collection of high-interest activities and games


that you can use to build fluency in children with stuttering
problems. Students learn the feel of slow speech as they
practice easy movements of the articulators during speech
production. Special features include easy-to-use tasks for
assessing fluency, high-interest lessons, a short story audio
CD with lively songs that reinforce easy speech, and a full-color

The program was developed based on a review of researchbased therapy approaches that have been found to be
effective in improving fluency. Strategies to promote
forward-flowing speech and a reduction in speaking rate
serve as a basis for many of the lessons. FLAIR is designed to
improve self-monitoring of speech and to promote transfer
to real-life situations by engaging the support of parents,
teachers, and others. Key components of the approach are
the following:

Rate reduction
Forward-moving speech
Self-monitoring
Establishing an ideal speaking rate
The book offers a comprehensive collection of reproducible
assessment tools including the Classroom Fluency
Questionnaire, Fluency Questionnaire for Parents, Disfluency
Analysis form, Pragmatic Assessment of Fluency, and
instruments for the direct assessment of fluency.

phonological processes in Spanish. The second edition
includes improvements in task content and format.
The instrument can be used with children or adults.
Vocabulary words that are familiar to young children
are emphasized in the tasks. The Spontaneous Word
Production Task is used to assess production of individual
phonemes and use of phonological processes such
as cluster reduction, stridency deletion, velar fronting,
stopping, and syllable reduction. Also included are tasks
designed specifically to assess the childs use of velars,
stridents, frequently misarticulated phonemes, etc.
The tasks are designed to be easy to administer and

many of the assessment measures. The manual includes a
variety of reproducible assessment forms.
The optional CD includes the reproducible record forms
from the manual and additional forms that will be helpful

This instrument includes a variety of criterionreferenced measures for assessing the pragmatic
and structural aspects of the Spanish language. The
tasks can be used to assess skills such as the ability to
understand basic concepts, communicate basic needs,
follow oral directions, retell short stories, request
information, describe events in sequence, make
inferences, express opinions, and ask questions. An
articulation screening instrument is included.

Implement a multicultural approach to assessing articulation and


phonology with ASAP.

Larry J. Mattes
Ages 3 through Adult
ASAP provides more information than other
speech production tests!
ASAP is a comprehensive criterion-referenced assessment
tool that can be used with native speakers of English
or second language learners. Production of speech
sounds, use of phonological processes, and phonological
awareness can all be assessed using a variety of easy-toadminister tasks. For the assessment of articulation, ASAP
includes a Spontaneous Word Production Task, Word
Repetition Articulation Screening, Sentence Repetition
Articulation Screening, Storytelling Articulation Task, and
reproducible probes for assessing individual phonemes. If,
for example, you want to test only the /r/ sound, ASAP has
a task specifically for /r/.

Why should you conduct assessments using


ASAP for English and SAM for Spanish?

Why buy separate tests for articulation, phonological


processes, and phonological awareness when one
instrument can do it all? The phonological awareness tasks
assess skills that are considered important for success in
the classroom.

When assessing articulation skills of individuals from


Spanish language backgrounds, ASAP and Spanish
Articulation Measures (see page 92) are perfect
companions. The CD that comes with ASAP includes
reproducible forms that are helpful when reviewing
assessment data obtained from bilingual students.

ASAP helps professionals distinguish differences


from disorders

Using ASAP with individuals from diverse


cultural backgrounds

Individuals who have been exposed to African American


English, Spanish, and other languages may have
articulation differences. These individuals need to be
distinguished from those with true disorders.
ASAP now comes with a CD that includes information
and reproducible record forms designed for use when
assessing culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
These forms will help you assess individuals with speech
patterns that have been influenced by African American
English, Spanish, French, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Japanese,
Korean, and other languages.

ASSESSMENT INSTRUMENTS
