## What is Basic Concepts Assessment?

The Basic Concepts app assesses comprehension of basic concepts in children from Pre-K to 1st grade.

This app is a great resource for clinicians, teachers, and parents, to establish a baseline knowledge of basic concepts.  It is important to note that the app does not score students.  Instead, it is designed to be used by the child and teacher together so that you can quickly see which concepts the student has already mastered and which concepts require additional reinforcement and repetition.

### 4/5 — App

*2022-02-28, version 1.0*

This app would be awesome if it tracked data

### 2/5 — Right Answers

*2022-01-26, version 1.0*

This app would be great if when a child picked the wrong answers that it would say wrong and not “right answer”. That is deceiving.

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2019-11-11, version 1.0*

This app works perfectly for my non-verbal son.  Just the right combination  he needs to be able to learn.

### 5/5 — Great for Speech/Language

*2017-01-16, version 1.0*

I shared this with our SLP and she said that it is really helpful when working with her students.

### 5/5 — Great for teaching.

*2017-01-13, version 1.0*

Love this app for any child but using it and loving it with my child with Down syndrome.

### 3/5 — Great idea

*2017-01-08, version 1.0*

Love that you have started this now......please please add more than the limited number of trials per concept. Kids generally need many trials and several different opportunities before grasping the concept.  Please add more and I would gladly purchase.

### 5/5 — Teaching Grandma

*2016-12-19, version 1.0*

Thanks for providing so many assessments in one app!

### 4/5 — Great

*2016-12-19, version 1.0*

Apps is great! My dilemma with the app are two minor things. 1. change the variation of the feedback given : how many times can a child hear the same "Good Job!" 2. When a child choose the wrong choice there is no beep or anything, when he does choose the correct one he gets a good job. 
Other than that I think app is great!

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2016-12-18*

I liked this app. It is simple to use and the pictures are appealing.   I only gave it four stars because it is American and so some of the vocabulary is not applicable for the caseload I work with.

### 4/5 — Basic concepts

*2016-12-15, version 1.0*

Great way to do a quick assessment of a variety of concepts. Like that the response task changes a bit for the child for some of the items.
