Interview 2
The other teacher I interviewed name is Mrs. Nichole. Mrs. Nichole has a class full of three year olds. I discussed with Mrs. Nichole that I was interested in how important she thinks accurately assessments are to her. Through my interview I learned that accurately assessing children, especially at a young age, is critical to their learning process. Also that one of the most inportant parts of assesments are observations.
Mrs. Nichole shared with me that the issues she commonly encounter with her colleges are that they are on the same page when observing the same child so the assessments would be correct.
The issue that most concerns me is if someone inaccurately record an observation, this could make the assesment be wrong which could seem that the child has problems.
After this interview I was more influenced to do my research paper on this subject than my original choice.

Shante, Assessment is a very important part of Ealry Childhood Education allong with Early Intervention services. The sooner we address the needs of children the sooner we help them achieve their developmental goals. Early Intervention is a very important issue and I feel well worth the research and advocacy.
ReplyDeleteEarly intervention and documentation of a student's abilities/interventions is part of the assessment process. No decision is made without the whole team making a joint decision: psychologist, teachers, administrators, parents and anyone else that has worked with the child.
