    PRINCIPLE APPLICATION

    1. An assessment must be based on an integrateddevelopment model

    * In assessing a child the teacher must see the different

    aspects first in order to understand the whole being.

    * In Preschool students the way the teacher assess thestudents is through means of rubrics in which they evaluate

    the students work not in terms of quantitative but through

    the qualitative means and so teachers must see the wholebeing of the child first.

    2. Assessment involves multiple sources of informationand multiple components

    *It is better if the teacher will provide not only few sources of

    information but many so that the students will be challenge to

    compress the idea and come out to one perspective. They willlearn from many sources that can be added up to their

    knowledge*In terms of giving away textbooks as sources it is better if the

    teacher could give different point of view or different ways onhow a certain topic could be discussed in order for the

    students to understand the whole topic.

    3. An assessment should follow a certain sequence *One good example that is really happening in the classroomsetting is through means of the friendship that exists inside

    the room, it is better if the teacher will also give the studentssimple reminders that can create a healthy relationshipamong the members. It is a step by step procedure that the

    students could get.

    4. The childs relationship and interaction with his orher most trusted caregiver should form the

    cornerstone of an assessment

    *In case there is a disciplinary action that must be given to astudent, the teacher should interview the parent/s or any

    close family member so that they could fully understand andthe action that will be given is suitable for his/her

    personality.5. An understanding of sequences and timetables in

    typical development is essential as a framework for

    the interpretation of developmental differencesamong the young children

    *We as the teachers should have a knowledge on how growth

    and development could take place to a child and how the

    influences can stimulate the student. Before giving advices tothe students it is important if the teacher is well educated in

    the certain point.6. Assessment should emphasize attention to the childs

    level and pattern of organizing experience and to

    functional capacities, which represent an integration

    of emotional and cognitive abilities.

    *Teachers must provide tools that can measure and developthe whole growth of a student. Tools such that can help them

    expand their skills and abilities.

    *In some ways, group activities could offer the studentschallenging roles and effective maturity on some points.

    7. The assessment process should identify the childscurrent competencies and strengths, as well as the

    competencies that constitute developmentalprogression in a continuous-growth model of

    development

    * Teachers must assess the students in the positive way,focusing on the strength and forte of the students.

    * Praising the students work or giving them special action canhelp the student to develop self esteem.

    8. Assessment is a collaborative process *Teachers also help in the development of every studentenrolled in the school. It is a concerted course where in the

    people around the student could make the difference in theindividual.

    9. The process of assessment should be viewed as thefirst step in potential intervention process.
