Assessment in Early Childhood

Assessment in early childhood refers to the process of observing and evaluating young children's development, learning, and abilities. It involves gathering information through various methods, such as observations, playful activities, and interactions, to understand each child's progress. The goal is to identify strengths and areas for improvement, inform teaching strategies, and support each child's unique growth. Effective assessment is ongoing and helps educators and parents make informed decisions that enhance learning experiences and foster healthy development during these formative years.
