Evaluating and Testing Preschoolers
There are several ways you can evaluate preschoolers. Most Preschool Teachers
do not like to say "TEST" and we agree.
You should always try to avoid testing your preshooler.
Evaulations of your preschooler should be done on observations at home or in
the classroom.
Although sometimes testing your child is neccessary.
We recommend using our Skill Sheets and Report Cards to access children skills.
DRC Skill Sheets & Report Cards
Use skill sheets to keep track of each child's individual progress. Work on
one skill for two weeks, then fill out skill sheets (or as you go)at the end
of the two weeks. Hand them out to the Parents to sign and return to put in
their child's portfoilio files. Parents will look forward to seeing how their
children are progressing on an academic level.
Skill sheets include the following skills. Fine Motor, Gross Motor, Eye-hand
Coordination, Number Recognition, Letter Recognition, Color Recognition, Shape
Recognition, Identification Skills, Calendar Skills, & Life Long Learning
Skills (Social). View Sample

The Ages & Stages Questionnaire: A Parent Completed , Child-Monitioring System
ASQ Testing: Ages & Stages Questionnaires (ASQ)™
A Parent-Completed, Child-Monitoring System
Price: $165.00
The Ages & Stages Questionnaires (ASQ)™ system is a low-cost, reliable way to
screen infants and young children for developmental delays during the crucial
first 5 years of life.
Parents complete the simple, illustrated 30-item questionnaires at designated
intervals, assessing children in their natural environments to ensure valid
results. Each questionnaire can be completed in just 10-15 minutes and covers
five key developmental areas: communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem
solving, and personal-social.
Professionals convert parents' responses of yes, sometimes, and not yet — in
just 2-3 minutes — to color-coded scoring sheets, enabling them to quickly
determine a child's progress in each developmental area. The ASQ™ User's Guide
then offers clear guidelines for determining whether children are at high or
low risk in the various domains.
ASQ™ keeps costs down by providing photocopiable forms that can be mailed to
parents. Or, the questionnaires can be completed by parents during home
visits — there's a helpful video that demonstrates the process.
And questionnaires are also available in Spanish, French, and Korean
for professionals who work with families that speak those languages.
It's a flexible, culturally sensitive, and economical way to track
the developmental progress of young children.
Eight new questionnaires, added to this edition as a result of user feedback,
extend the age-range of the system and help to create a more authentic means of
measuring the rapidly developing skills of young children.
