Behavioral Observation and Screening4
Observation & Screening p.2
Child care professionals observe and screen children so they
can facilitate the growth and development of every child in their program, detect early signs of developmental delay or disability, and identify signs of child abuse and neglect.
Observation is when a child care worker recognizes and notes an identifiable performance or behavior and uses instruments such as checklists, anecdotal records and running records. The instruments are used to measure progress against a standard and to share results with assessment experts.
Screening means an instrument intended to identify and monitor normal development or possible developmental delay. Screening programs are not diagnostic, and are not based on whether a child has passed a certain curriculum.

1. Screening, assessment, and evaluation should be viewed as services- as part of the intervention- and not only as means of identification and measurement.2. Processes, procedures, and instruments intended for screening, assessment, and evaluation should only be used for their specific purposes.3. Multiple sources of information should be included in screening, assessment and evaluation.4. Developmental screening, assessment, and evaluation should take place on a recurrent or periodic basis.5. Screening should be viewed as only one path to further assessment or evaluation. 6. Screening, assessment, and evaluation procedures should be reliable and valid. 7. Family members should be an integral part of screening, assessment , and evaluation process.8. Screening, assessment, and evaluation should be conducted in natural, non-threatening setting and involve tasks that are relevant to the child and family. 9. As tools, procedures, and processes intend for screening, assessment, and evaluation must be culturally sensitive. 10. Those who screen, assess and evaluate young children should be well trained.
