Assessment in the Classroom
Infant and toddler programs that support intentional teaching and care allocate time in teachers' schedules for individual and team reflection and planning.[1] Programs supporting assessment provide adequate time and space for family members and caregivers to reflect individually, as well as consult with co-teachers regarding observation and assessment information. This time and space to reflect needs to be separated physically and emotionally from caring for the children.[2]
