I am a Speech Pathologist and I need to assess a 5 year old that was labeled CAS, but he is able to produce complete sentences and does have some difficulty with multisyllabic words of 3 or more syllables, but can produce them when they are segmented and slowed down. I was told that he needs to have a PROMPT method used with him, but that seems to be more effective with the students that are at the sound/phoneme level or at least CVC words. I would appreciate a recommendation for assessment for this more advanced level student.

I know this was posted over a year ago, but I have to point out one thing that is wrong. Reading to an apraxic preschooler will not make him a better reader in K or first grade. Apraxic children are often (usually) dyslexic, and all the bedtime stories in the world will not help a dyslexic child learn to read. Apraxic/dyslexic children often lack the underlying physical and phonological skills that other children pick up almost instinctively. They usually do best with an intensive sensory-based reading curriculum (like one of the numerous Orton Gillingham based curriculums out there).
