The Developmental Screening helps determine where your child is developmentally and will give you the opportunity to help your child be better prepared for Kindergarten.
The Screening measures the following developmental and pre-academic areas:
- Personal data response
- Color Recognition
- Picture Vocabulary
- Visual Discrimination- forms and uppercase letters
- Visual motor skills
- Gross motor skills
- Rote counting
- Identification of body parts
- Follows verbal directions
When the screening is finished, the person screening your child will provide you with kindergarten readiness information. If your child has difficulty in a particular area(s) you will be given information and activities you can do at home to help prepare your child for school. If your child needs further evaluation to determine if services are needed, we will help you by making a referral or providing information on where you can go for help. It is important that you spend time working with your child everyday. Working with your child will promote development in the skill areas that will ensure readiness for kindergarten. Parents are their child's first teacher and your efforts are very important in helping your child be ready for school!
