Test of Early Written Language (TEWL).
Shanklin, Nancy L.
Reading Teacher, v42 n8 p630-31 Apr 1989
Describes and evaluates the Test of Early Written Language (TEWL), an instrument resulting in percentile or standard scores that reflect children's writing development at ages three to seven. Warns that it fails to tap important concepts at the lower age ranges, and violates several principles of children's authentic writing experiences. (MM)
