A strategy approach to language assessment is provided by evaluating delays in the emergence of linguistic competence and in the use of semantic, syntactic and pragmatic strategies. Emphasis is placed on assessing a child's ability to perceive, interpret and respond to the contextual and situational demands of conversation in addition to basic semantic and syntactic abilities.
