Description:

With more emphasis on young children’s literacy achievement than ever before, assessment is an essential component in preschool literacy programs. This resource provides guidance on how to account for student learning and adapt teaching strategies to fit children's individual needs. Preschool teachers and administrators will be able to assess children's oral language development, phonological awareness, comprehension, and concepts about print, books, and writing. From the International Reading Association's Preschool Literacy Collection.
