ERIC Identifier: Publication Date: Author: Vacc, Nicholas A. - Ritter, Sandra H. Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Counseling and Student Services Greensboro NC. Assessment of Preschool Children. ERIC Digest. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC ASSESSMENT OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN Young children, however, are difficult subjects to assess accurately because of their activity level and distractibility, shorter attention span, wariness of strangers, and inconsistent performance in unfamiliar environments. Other factors that may affect a child's performance include cultural differences and language barriers, parents not having books to read to their child and a child's lack of interaction with other children. Consequently, assessment of infants, toddlers, and young children requires sensitivity to the child's background, and knowledge of testing limitations and procedures with young children. CURRENT TRENDS Assessment, differentiated from test administration and interpretation, is usually a comprehensive process of gathering information about a child across developmental areas. Benner (1992) reported several continua along which assessments fall: (a) norm-referenced to criterion-referenced, product oriented to process oriented assessment; (b) formal to informal assessment, direct to indirect assessment; (c) standardized tests to handicap-accommodating tests; and (d) single-discipline approach to team approach. The present trend in preschool assessment is toward the latter perspective of each continuum with strengths being emphasized rather than deficits.

I use puppets, small instruments, pictures, stuffed animals and any other I can find to help them understand what wthey are learning. I have many non-english speaking students and music time has helped them to develop language skills. If you want to make shakers/maracas, try using plastic Easter eggs filled with dried beans and hot glued shut. My little guys love those shakers. They are just the right size for their small hands. You can also use 35mm film canisters. Experiment with the sounds of the beans, rice or popcorn. You will be amazed at how quickly these young ones pick up musical ideas.

Sep 11 '00 Picking a preschool for a child consists of several options when the child is one with special needs. Most preschoolers are from the ages of three to five. If a child has a disability, is afflicted with a disease or blind or deaf they would qualify for Special Education. Depending on what State you reside in you will start with an assessment within the school district you are located in. The assessment could be a speech and language one, an occupational therapy observation or a psychological exam. For children from the ages of birth to three there is the Early Intervention Program. If a child has been diagnosed with a disease or disability during these years they would be enrolled in this program. For my oldest son he was already three when we had an IEP meeting, which is where you develop with the district, therapists and teachers a Individual Education Plan for the child with special needs. My son was diagnosed at this meeting with Autism and from there I was given the referral to the Regional Center System for the State of California. It was suggested that my son attend a elementary school due to the teacher in this two year program and her experience with autism.

State of Israel Ministry of Education Pedagogic Administration Preschool Education Division Special Needs Populations In The Preschool Education System The Ministry of Education encourages mainstreaming for children with a variety of temporary or long-term special needs into the regular education system, to the extent to which this is possible, and considers this to be both a goal and a value. The Preschool Education Division addresses the needs of populations with either temporary or long-term special needs. Such populations include: Immigrant children Children at risk Children with severe behavioral problems Children who are developmentally delayed "Gifted" children Children with physical disabilities Children with sensory impairments Children who become ill THE MAINSTREAMING PROGRAM According to the Director-general's Circular - Standing Orders 59/8(C), the mainstreaming program is aimed at enabling regular educational frameworks and the local integrating committee to develop and formulate a wide variety of strategies for dealing with special needs children enrolled in regular classes, according to the needs of the pupils. Provision of such services is contingent upon parental consent, and the head preschool teacher is responsible for obtaining such consent. Support services are provided on the premises of the preschool the child attends, during the morning or afternoon hours, according to the nature of the therapy and based on the decision of the preschool's multidisciplinary committee, taking into account the child's individual needs.

N EWS A RTICLES OF S PECIAL I NTEREST F ROM A ROUND T HE C OUNTRY March 3, 1999 Parents attack plan to trim special-needs preschool By Gloria A. Hoffner INQUIRER SUBURBAN STAFF MEDIA Unstructured playtime is a serious problem for 3-year-old A.J. Pyrih. Diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at age 2, he needs constant structured activities in order to learn language and social interaction skills that most children pick up by modeling others, his mother, Cindy, said. That is why she fears that a Delaware County Intermediate Unit plan to cut five weeks from the county's early-intervention preschool calendar could slow the progress of A.J. and other special-needs children. "When we are not actively working with him at home, school or with a therapist, he is doing mindless tasks over and over," Cindy Pyrih said. "There is no question that the more early intervention these children receive, the better their chances of being able to be integrated into a regular classroom when they are school-age. "No expert has said, 'Give them less education and therapy. ' That decision is based on money."
