This is not technology related but wondered if anyone knew of any resources that may help. I have a little girl in my class (2nd grade). She is new to our school and only speaks to a little girl that was in her class at her previous school. She nods or shakes her head when asked yes/no questions. She will also speak on the phone, according to her teacher last year. I am going to try this method in order to do her reading test. If you know of anything please let me know!
One of my colleagues used Voice Thread to assess the reading skills of a first grade student with selective mutism with great success. You may want to consider that tool.
