AUTHENTIC ASSESSMENT & DIFFERENTIATION

Joel Umoja is a a 4-year-old Pre-Kindergartner, who is an Urdu /English Dual Language Learner. It is his third week of school. His
parents were unable to attend an orientation or transition period with him. His comfort-blankie was put in his cubby by his father. He
uses it at nap time.

Screening: Sensory & Developmental Screening has caused a concern regarding speech and hearing. In addition, there are some
concerns regarding small motor development. Joel has not yet been evaluated.

Portfolio Assessment: Joel’s drawings are all in the scribbling phase. There are not yet, any recognizable shapes or figures. He
does not yet appear to be able/willing to dictate the depictions he creates.

Anecdotal Observations: Initial observations have revealed that Joel engages mostly in Parallel Play. He however, last week,

attempted to initiate play with a child. A fight ensued when that child refused to relinquish a toy of which there was only one. The

child bit Joel. Since then, he spends most of his time in school, sucking his thumb, hugging his ‘Blankie’ and/or drawing.

Planning: Use the Standards, Goals & Objectives to plan for Joel and his class. First plan a Unit using the blank Curriculum Web

Provided here. Then, create a weekly lesson plan for the class on the Weekly Planning Form. While completing Page 2 of the form,

write the plan to differentiate instruction for this child on the section titled: Individual Child Planning. In that section, list the

standards, goals & objectives on which you will focus individualized instruction for Joel.

Reflecting on the Week
Regarding the learning children had quite a lot of interaction with the sensory materials but
they especially liked the color bottles.
Increased interest in mirror self-recognition and social play.
A few children could need more help in how to share activities.
Outdoor activities included swing and balance as well as music, and these were preferred by
the students.

To Do List
• Collect more substantiations (fabrics, objects with smell).
• Order more flyer notices for Daddy Drop In Day for your

family.
• Increase social-emotional selections in the reading area by

rotating books.
• Social observation and documentation of peers as part of

their social learning progress.
• Discuss with families about how you may revisit the

concept of kindness at home in the following meeting.

Individual Child Planning
J.U. (S/E): Needs additional support in turn-taking during group activities. Encourage sharing
through role-play scenarios.
M.K: was eager to engage in activities that involved his sense organs but had difficulty in
movements between different activities. Provide visual cues.
The reader T.L. (S/E) mentioned they liked I&I because of extra practice during reading Skills.
Continue personalized story time.
A.R.: Shown concern about specific types of activities, such as movements; want more
dance and play that involves whole body.

Interest Areas

Observation Journals

•My observations and experiences have shown that teachers
record anecdotes in order to observe children’s examples in
demonstrating manners, friendliness, generosity, and
compromise.
• These assessments are particularly beneficial in considering

each child’s and young adult’s social-emotional development
for providing them with the appropriate intervention and
learning styles.

Goal and Objectives
• Social-emotional development: Provide opportunities for positive social

interactions and behaviors between children.
• CAD: Encourage emerging communication skills for infants and toddlers;

promote the use of gestures, sounds, and the first words.
• Promote Social Participation: Introduce activities that demand the children

to take turns and engage in collective play.
•When infants engage with familiar caregivers and peers they will respond

positively through smiling, making eye contact, or extending their hands.
• At this stage they will learn to notice positive stimuli like a caregiver smiling

or comforting touch or a peer sharing a toy.
• Toddlers between 12-24 months will engage in various compositions of

kindness including gently touching/patting a friend or giving a toy to a peer.
• It should be noted that infants will participate in play activities in many

ways, inclusive of parallel play, imitation, or joint attention.

Reflecting on the Week
Regarding the learning children had quite a lot of interaction with the sensory materials but
they especially liked the color bottles.
Increased interest in mirror self-recognition and social play.
A few children could need more help in how to share activities.
Outdoor activities included swing and balance as well as music, and these were preferred by
the students.

To Do List
• Collect more substantiations (fabrics, objects with smell).
• Order more flyer notices for Daddy Drop In Day for your

family.
• Increase social-emotional selections in the reading area by

rotating books.
• Social observation and documentation of peers as part of

their social learning progress.
• Discuss with families about how you may revisit the

concept of kindness at home in the following meeting.

Individual Child Planning
J.U. (S/E): Needs additional support in turn-taking during group activities. Encourage sharing
through role-play scenarios.
M.K: was eager to engage in activities that involved his sense organs but had difficulty in
movements between different activities. Provide visual cues.
The reader T.L. (S/E) mentioned they liked I&I because of extra practice during reading Skills.
Continue personalized story time.
A.R.: Shown concern about specific types of activities, such as movements; want more
dance and play that involves whole body.

Interest Areas

Observation Journals

•My observations and experiences have shown that teachers
record anecdotes in order to observe children’s examples in
demonstrating manners, friendliness, generosity, and
compromise.
• These assessments are particularly beneficial in considering

each child’s and young adult’s social-emotional development
for providing them with the appropriate intervention and
learning styles.

Goal and Objectives
• Social-emotional development: Provide opportunities for positive social

interactions and behaviors between children.
• CAD: Encourage emerging communication skills for infants and toddlers;

promote the use of gestures, sounds, and the first words.
• Promote Social Participation: Introduce activities that demand the children

to take turns and engage in collective play.
•When infants engage with familiar caregivers and peers they will respond

positively through smiling, making eye contact, or extending their hands.
• At this stage they will learn to notice positive stimuli like a caregiver smiling

or comforting touch or a peer sharing a toy.
• Toddlers between 12-24 months will engage in various compositions of

kindness including gently touching/patting a friend or giving a toy to a peer.
• It should be noted that infants will participate in play activities in many

ways, inclusive of parallel play, imitation, or joint attention.

AUTHENTIC ASSESSMENT & DIFFERENTIATION

Joel Umoja is a a 4-year-old Pre-Kindergartner, who is an Urdu /English Dual Language Learner. It is his third week of school. His parents were unable to attend an orientation or transition period with him. His comfort-blankie was put in his cubby by his father. He uses it at nap time.

Screening: Sensory & Developmental Screening has caused a concern regarding speech and hearing. In addition, there are some concerns regarding small motor development. Joel has not yet been evaluated.

Portfolio Assessment: Joel’s drawings are all in the scribbling phase. There are not yet, any recognizable shapes or figures. He does not yet appear to be able/willing to dictate the depictions he creates.

Anecdotal Observations: Initial observations have revealed that Joel engages mostly in Parallel Play. He however, last week, attempted to initiate play with a child. A fight ensued when that child refused to relinquish a toy of which there was only one. The child bit Joel. Since then, he spends most of his time in school, sucking his thumb, hugging his ‘Blankie’ and/or drawing.

Planning: Use the Standards, Goals & Objectives to plan for Joel and his class. First plan a Unit using the blank Curriculum Web Provided here. Then, create a weekly lesson plan for the class on the Weekly Planning Form. While completing Page 2 of the form, write the plan to differentiate instruction for this child on the section titled: Individual Child Planning. In that section, list the standards, goals & objectives on which you will focus individualized instruction for Joel.
