School Readiness. Four measures of early math and four measures of early literacy were administered to the participating preschoolers. The four measures of early math consisted of an Oral Counting task and three tasks of the Assessing Student Proficiency in Early Number Sense test (ASPENS) developed by Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, & Xxxxxxx (2012). The ASPENS was designed for children between 5 and 7 years of age (kindergartners and 1st graders in the US) and includes Number Identification, Magnitude Comparison, and Missing Number tasks. The ASPENS shows adequate test-retest reliability ranging in the .70s and .80s. Criterion predictive validity and criterion concurrent validity correlations were found to be reasonable (.54 and .58. respectively) for Kindergartners. The ASPENS was translated into Spanish by the first author and adapted to pre-K level so that only numbers between 0 and 10 were presented to the preschoolers (instead of from 0 to 20 as in the original version). To measure early literacy four of twelve subtests of the Prueba de Alfabetización Inicial (PAI) – Early Literacy Test were used. The PAI was developed in Chile for children between 5 and 7 years to measure phonological awareness, awareness of printed texts, knowledge of the alphabet, reading and writing (Xxxxxxxx & Rolla, 2008). We included two tests of phonological awareness (rhymes and identifying the initial letter), awareness of printed texts, and letter identification. As our participating children were in Pre-K no reading or writing tasks were selected. The PAI has been validated in Peru, showing high internal consistency (α = .96) (Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, & Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 2013). In our sample Xxxxxxx correlations ranged from .52 to .76 for the five subscales (phonological awareness, awareness of printed texts, knowledge of the alphabet, reading and writing). We computed standardized scores of all subscales based on which we created sum-scores for early math and early literacy respectively. Early math and early literacy showed a significant Xxxxxxx correlation of .74 and were therefore summed to create one global indicator of school readiness. Hereunder the reader will find a short summary of all eight school readiness measures, which took 15-20 minutes to administer in total. For a detailed description of the early math and literacy tasks see authors (Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, & Xxxxxxx, 2012; Xxxxxx & Xxxxx, 2004; Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx, 2008).
School Readiness. School Readiness is a very important part of our program and involves more than just children. School Readiness is about children, families and the environment. Children are not innately “ready” or “not ready” for school. Their skills and development are strongly influenced by their families and through their interactions with other people and environments before going to school. All areas of children’s development and learning must be included in definitions of readiness. School Readiness is more than basic knowledge of language and math, even though these are important. Readiness expectations should include all areas: physical, cognitive, social, and emotional competence, as well as, positive attitudes toward learning. Our staff is committed to collaborating with you to prepare your child for success in Kindergarten by
School Readiness. 1. Work with kindergarten educators and families to build their capacity to support young children’s learning in the areas of communication (speech and language development) and wellbeing (social and emotional development) and ensure children are able to access and be included in kindergarten and get the most out of it.
School Readiness. The District and HEAD START PROGRAM will partner to accomplish school readiness for all enrolled children in a manner that supports the framework outlined in Attachment E, HEAD START PROGRAM’s School Readiness Plan.
School Readiness. School readiness refers to the child’s ability to meet the demands of school, such as being comfortable exploring and asking questions, listening to the teacher, playing and working with others and remembering and following rules.[9] Domains of school readiness include physical health and well-being, social competence, emotional maturity, language and cognitive development, communication skills and general knowledge. Many tools have been developed to test for school readiness. These tools might vary in some ways, but all must have questions grouped into the domains mentioned previously and sometimes include scores for interactive activities that test pre-mathematical, numerical and literacy skills. [10] As will be elaborated on later, school readiness tools will generally touch on all of the components listed above but might also remain focused on the aspect the national, regional or local department of education, school, non-profit, or other stakeholder find most important.[11] For instance, a country’s department of education might see reduced scores in mathematics and would, in response, prioritize a numerical skills test to gauge mastery in numerical concepts, in hopes that this could improve math scores in the child’s future. The concept and measurement of school readiness has been the subject of conversations in the fields of education and child development for many years. Although stakeholders in these, and other, fields have slightly different definitions and perspectives on school readiness, a few concepts are generally agreed upon. First of all, school readiness is strongly multi-dimensional and this diversity in perspectives and objectives are central to identifying avenues to conceptualize and measure school readiness. The literature has generally focused on two main classes of child attributes, although this division is arbitrary. The first class of child attributes in determining school readiness covers cognitive capabilities and pre-mathematical and pre- literacy skills such as language competence, familiarity with words, and ability to concentrate.
School Readiness a program that offers qualified parents financial assistance for child care through a variety of services. Child care services include extended-day, extended-year, and school age care to support parents in becoming financially self-sufficient.

School Readiness. Coaches will participate in a Train the Trainer training that will enable them to deliver the School Readiness level 2 training to Early Achiever program directors. As with teaching, best practices in coaching are constantly being improved upon as we learn more about preparing children for school. Monthly webinars will help provide additional trainings and information throughout the year Early Achievers Coaching Quality Assurance Quality assurance materials allow Early Achievers coaches and the UW team to make informed data driven decisions about the coaching model. Use of the materials allows for goal setting, observation, and feedback that can be used to inform all aspects of the model from specific coach-program relationships to systemic processes and procedures. The following outline introduces quality assurance measures for Practice Based Coaching, School Readiness trainings, and cultural competency. Supporting materials are in development (see appendices).
