Kindergarten Readiness checklist: Strategies can be developed before presenting what was observed

through assessments and testing. I selected the Kindergarten Checklist because It gives the educator a

a checklist that keeps track of physical, social and cognitive skills that the child has mastered through

portfolios. The results show that Timothy has mastered physical skills. Timothy's social skills are still

developing, he uses one to three word sentences. Tim has great cognitive skills he can recognize his

numbers up to twelve,

    It is important to remember that each area of learning and development does not work in isolation but they are all in fact interlinked. Good quality activities will cover more than one area of development. For example, allowing children to access the outdoors will not only support their physical development, but encourage their communication and exploration of their environment. Where a child experiences a delay in one area, it is likely to limit their learning and development in the other five...a child with cerebral palsy who experiences hand-eye coordination difficulties is likely to find completing a puzzle difficult therefore hindering her problem solving, reasoning and numeracy. It is therefore vital that settings recognise each child’s individual needs and plan holistically in order to help children achieve their full potential across the six areas of learning.…

    In regards to the newly state-mandated, textbook-based curriculum for Kindergarten, I am apprehensive to the benefits of such said curriculum for children so young. Although textbooks cover lots of information in a given subject they aren’t nearly as effective as age-appropriate literature in their ability to interest children in the area of topic and getting them excited about learning. Kindergarten aged children will most likely see typical textbooks as boring and/or overwhelming. At this age children are at the beginner stage of reading, some may not have any prior reading skills, which advises that textbooks are too far-fetched for their age group.…
