The Wiig Assessment of Basic Concepts (WABC) evaluates a child's use of basic concepts using a storybook format. The Wiig is a unique, norm-referenced assessment that can be used to:
- create focused IEPs and intervention plans.
- thoroughly assess basic concepts.
- identify children in preschool and kindergarten who need "extra help" with basic concepts.
- distinguish deficits in using basic concepts from deficits in understanding them.
- further distinguish an inability to understand basic concept terms from deficits in auditory processing (following directions).
