The website I chose
to explore more is http://eclkc.ohs.acf.hhs.gov/hslc.
It provides so much information about the function of head start programs.
However due to the government shutdown there were some areas that were not
updated. I explored the tab titled school readiness and the first thing that
caught my eye was the title Raising Quality in Head Start. I researched the Use
of Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) in Head Start. It provides a
list of frequently asked questions and the use and importance of the assessment
system. As I continued to look through the website there are a lot of useful
and resourceful information for professionals in the early childhood field to
gain more knowledge.

Hi Shonda,
ReplyDeleteI work for Head Start and we do use the CLASS system to look at our classrooms and instructional strategies and see where we need improvement. We went to training for this last year. This year, our director ordered instructional videos that we will learn more about CLASS from if we are found low in any of the CLASS areas. Thanks for letting me know about the resource!

You and I chose the same website to include in our week 6 blog posting. I love use eclkc to access and research early childhood topics.
