About this book
This comprehensive guide to assessment in early childhood special education offers a macro- and micro-level understanding of the essential processes and activities relevant to the assessment of young children at risk of, or having, developmental delays or disabilities.
The book provides insights into the laws, regulations, processes, culturally and contextually relevant practices, and requirements that practitioners need to follow when engaged in assessment, in addition to an extensive overview of current and time-tested assessment tools designed for use by early childhood educators when evaluating young children with developmental challenges. It provides immediate guidance and support to a wide range of individuals engaged in service to young children who may have, or are already identified as having, a disability.
Assessment in Early Childhood Special Education is an essential text for pre-service early childhood special educators as well as current practitioners, including day care teachers (homebased and center-based), certified early childhood special educators, and general education kindergarten through second grade teachers. It should be on the desk of every early childhood educator who works with children who may be, or have been, identified as being at risk, developmentally delayed, or disabled.
