Child Assessment

To assess children’s development and growth, we use the creative curriculum “GOLD” Assessment. Assessment is an integral part of the program and guides the work we do with each child. Each lead teacher and much of the support staff have been trained and participate in ongoing training in the use and implementation of the Creative Curriculum. The purposes of assessment are 1) to identify the needs, interests, skills and abilities of the children enrolled. 2) to compare the developmental progress of the child to the Developmental Continuum ( Creative Curriculum) 3) to use the information gathered to share with the parents and to inform the curriculum and preparation of the learning environment.

As much as possible assessment information is gathered in a naturalistic (classroom) environment and on demand testing is reserved for limited usage. The assessment tool utilized is the Creative Curriculum Developmental Continuum(which assures continuity between classroom curriculum and assessment). Our Assessment process is multifaceted and includes: the individual Child Profile (checklist) and Child Progress and Planning Report, individual portfolio notebooks and journals hold sample work, photos and observations of each child; anecdotal records and other teacher created and Creative Curriculum assessment forms. The portfolios and journals are readily available in the classrooms for parents to view at any time. Anecdotal records, teacher notes and the Developmental Continuum forms are secured to protect the privacy of the family. These records are only available to the Teacher, Assistant Teacher, Director and parents. All assessment information is shared and discussed with parents during conferences in January and May when the family is offered the opportunity to also contribute comments and observations and individualized goals are established. Any parent interested in seeing copies of the Developmental continuum and Child Progress and Planning Report may do so by requesting a copy from the Director. If there are concerns about the form or technique used for Child Assessment please contact the Director. In the event of Special Needs Issues, modifications to the assessment techniques may be implemented in order to best meet the needs of the individual child.​

Why Preschool Is Important to Your Child

Posted on July 12, 2021 by Louise Savoie

Why Preschool Is Important to Your Child

Early childhood education like preschool is one of the controversial topics to policymakers and parents during 2013 wherein former President Barack Obama was president. According to Administration for Children and Families, programs like preschool in Toledo, Ohio, are state-funded for low-income families. You can get to know such a service if you contact your local school administration.

Checking the right program for your kid during this early childhood education is a problem occurring among families in the US. A daycare in Ohio can help you decide on the type of program suited for your kid. You have to talk to experts to have a full orientation on what happens. Here are the top advantages of considering the program:

  • Social and emotional development
    Children will strengthen the way they cope up with a group of other kids. It is one way of developing their strong emotional sense. The social interaction of other kids will also help in fulfilling the tasks in school.
  • School readiness
    Preschool is the start of the big school headstart preparation. It teaches children how to be students in big schools and develop patience during raising their hands.
  • Language and cognitive skills
    Expert teachers help in making sure that the right language is taught to kids. Activities will help in the way to take a nurtured language development.
