Introduction
NAEYC is an early childhood accreditation program that undertakes a self-assessment project with the view of providing standardized early childhood education. In establishing the accountability of the program, one collects data that is thereafter used to show how the program conforms to the accreditation criteria, which is the focus of the NAECY program. In any observation conducted, information is grouped under four basic sources of evidence. These are observation criteria, program portfolio, classroom portfolio and teaching staff surveys. This report gives the information gathered during an observation conducted in one of the classrooms of Baltimore (fictitious) childcare centre (“Guide to Self-Assessment,” 2011).
Observation Criteria
Date of Observation
The study was carried out on Monday 16th of July 2012. This was a suitable day for the observation because in most cases, parents emphasised on school attendance on this day and the entire management is usually present in school on Mondays.
Ages of Children Observed
The observation covered the kindergarten children between ages of four and six. To avoid subjective results, the study gathered information on both genders. It was easier to carry out the role since the school had both girls and boys in every class, a factor that reduced gender bias and discrimination.
