Concept of Word (COW) - PALS

Concept of Word (COW)
A firm COW in text requires the following:
1. an accurate and consistent speech-to-print match when finger-point reading a memorized text (Part A)
AND
2. the ability to remember words previously seen in context (Part B)
In order to monitor progress of both skills, the COW Quick Check is split into two parts:
Part A
Part A of the COW Quick Check measures a student’s ability to match speech to print. Scores on this task also reflect
a student’s application of early literacy skills while interacting with text including alphabetic recognition, letter sound
knowledge, beginning sound awareness, and phonemic awareness.
The format of Part A demonstrates the components of an effective concept of word lesson that should be used often
with emergent readers: frequent echo and choral reading of nursery rhymes, modeling finger-pointing to words while
reading aloud, self-correcting errors in pointing, and identifying individual words in text. Student progress toward
COW in text can then be monitored in the classroom by using the format of the finger-point reading and Word ID
tasks presented in Part A.
Part B
Once a student is able to match speech to print routinely in class and in at least three consecutive COW Quick Checks
(Part A), it is recommended to check the firmness of his or her COW by administering Part B. Part B of the COW
Quick Check assesses a student’s ability to recognize words from the nursery rhyme when presented in isolation on a
word list.
By learning the rhyme orally, choral and echo reading the rhyme, and practicing finger-pointing to the words, students
have encountered the words many times in context. Some students are then able to recognize the words from the rhyme
in isolation by combining their automatic knowledge of letter sounds with their memory for the words in the context
of the rhyme. Students who demonstrate the “pick up” of words on the post-test word list that were previously not recognized on the pre-test have a firm COW.

The COW Quick Check is administered individually.
The rhymes are numbered one through five and increase in difficulty.
Part A includes Pointing and Word ID.
Once a child is able to match speech to print (Part A) routinely in class and in at least three consecutive COW Quick
Checks, it is recommended to check the firmness of his or her COW by administering Part B and using a different
rhyme.
Instructions
Memorizing the Rhyme
1. Students must know the rhyme “by heart” prior to assessment. Use the COW Picture Sheet to teach the rhyme orally
(without text). This can be done as a whole class, small group, or individual activity using the COW Picture Sheet
only.
2. Say, “We’re going to learn a rhyme. Listen and watch as I say the rhyme that goes with the pictures.” Point to each
picture as you say the rhyme and ask the student to (a) say the rhyme with you, (b) echo your recitation, picture by
picture, and (c) say the rhyme alone. Repeat oral choral and echo recitation using the picture prompts as many times
as necessary to get a verbatim recitation.
Pointing
1. Show the student the COW Text Sheet for the memorized rhyme and say, “Now we will read the words to the rhyme
you just said. This page has the rhyme written down in printed words.”
2.Read the rhyme to the student while pointing to each word clearly as you read it.
3. Say, “Now let’s read it together. Eyes on the page. Read it with me as I point to each word.” Choral read the entire
rhyme together while pointing to each word.
4.Echo read the entire rhyme, line by line. Say, “Now we will take turns reading each line of the rhyme. First I’ll read
a line and touch each word. Then you will read the same line and touch each word. Ready?”
5. Ask the student to touch the words while “reading” the rhyme independently. Say, “This time I want you to do what
I did. Point to each word as you say the rhyme. Be sure to touch each word as you say it.”
6. Score the child’s finger-pointing on the entire rhyme before beginning Word ID. Record the score on the COW Part
A: Student Score Sheet.

COW Part A: Speech-to-Print Match
Word ID
1. Target words are bolded and underlined on the COW Part A: Student Score Sheet.
2. After the student has read/finger-pointed to the entire rhyme, point to the first target word in the first line on the
COW Text Sheet and ask the student, “What word is this?”
3. Continue to point to the target words in order on the COW Text Sheet and ask the student, “What word is this?”
4. Score the student’s Word ID on the COW Part A: Student Score Sheet.
Scoring
Points (Award per line)
Student’s Pointing Characteristics
0 points
no left-to-right directionality
1 point
points generally from left to right but does not consistently use a discernable unit
(word, syllable, letter, white space)
2 points
points to a different letter each time a different word is said
3 points
points rhythmically to stress beats or syllables
4 points
points to words but gets off track on two-syllable words
5 points
gets off track on two-syllable words but self corrects immediately
6 points
points to each word correctly as it is said
POINTING
1.Note that the Pointing scoring is different from the PALS-K COW task because it uses a rubric. Score the student’s
finger-pointing using the following rubric:
Word ID
1. The student is awarded one point for each word identified correctly. Only single word responses (e.g., teddy as
opposed to teddy bear) are correct. Self-corrections are counted as correct.
2. Calculate the COW Part A score by adding the Pointing and Word ID scores together.
3. The maximum possible score for Part A is 32.
4. Write the date and record the student’s score on the COW Part A: Student Progress Chart.

Administration Notes
• The COW Quick Check is administered individually.
• The rhymes are numbered one through five and increase in difficulty.
• Part B should be administered to students who are able to match speech to print routinely in class and in at least
three consecutive COW Part A Quick Checks.
• Part B includes a pre-test word list, working with the rhyme in text, and a post-test word list.
• If administering Part A before Part B, choose a different rhyme for Part B because the child has already interacted
with the text.
Instructions
Pre-test Word List
1. Show the student the Pre-test Word List. Say, “Here is a list of words. Put your finger on the first word on the list.
See if you can read each word. If you don’t know it, skip it and go to the next word.”
2. Score the Pre-test Word List on the COW Part B: Student Score Sheet.
3. Consider stopping administration if the student scores 7 or higher on the Pre-test List. Students who score 7 or higher on the Pre-test Word List probably have a COW because they already can recognize some words.

4.Read the rhyme to the student while pointing to each word clearly as you read it.
5. Say, “Let’s read it together now. Eyes on the page. Read it with me as I point to each word.” Choral read the entire
rhyme together while pointing to each word.

6.Echo read the entire rhyme, line by line. Say, “Now we will take turns reading each line of the rhyme. First I’ll read
a line and touch each word. Then you will read the same line and touch each word. Ready?”
7. Ask the student to touch the words while “reading” the rhyme independently. Say. “This time I want you to do what
I did. Point to each word as you say the rhyme. Be sure to touch each word as you say it.”
Post-test Word List
1.Return to the list of words. Ask the student to identify any words on the list s/he knows. Say, “Now I’ll show you the
same list of words that you saw before we learned the rhyme. Put your finger on the first word on the list. See if
you can read any of them now. If you don’t know a word after trying your best, skip it and go to the next word.”
2. Score the Post-test Word List on the COW Part B: Student Score Sheet.
Scoring
1. Only the Pre- and Post-Test Word Lists are scored in Part B. Finger-pointing is not scored.
2. To score the Pre- and Post-test Word Lists, mark a check in the box beside the word if the student identified it
correctly. Write down incorrect answers or leave the box blank.
3. Calculate the COW Word List score by adding the Pre-test and Post-test Word List scores together.
4. The maximum possible score for Part B is 20.
5. Write the date and record the student’s score on the COW Part B: Student Progress Chart.

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn.
The sheep’s in the meadow, the cow’s in the corn.
Where is the boy who looks after the sheep?
He’s under the haystack, fast asleep.

Way down South where bananas grow,
A grasshopper stepped on an elephant’s toe.
The elephant cried, with tears in his eyes,
“Pick on someone your own size!”

Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
Eating her curds and whey.
Along came a spider who sat down beside her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away.
