Diagnostics of knowledge, skills and abilities of preschoolers is carried out in kindergarten, as a rule, twice a year: at the beginning and at the end of the school year. This allows you to compare the results of the work done with children.
Instructions
Step 1
To conduct a diagnostic examination, it is necessary to develop a diagnostic toolkit. It includes a list of tasks for identifying knowledge, skills and abilities of children with criteria for levels, forms to fill out.
Step 2
Criteria are usually defined for high, medium and low developmental levels of children. To develop the criteria, it is necessary to study the general education program used in the preschool institution. Some programs already have ready-made diagnostics, some suggest that teachers develop it themselves, focusing on the characteristics and age of children (for example, "School 2100").
Step 3
When drawing up questions for children, you need to focus on the final result presented in the program. The program provides for the so-called "graduate portrait", which describes what a child should know and be able to do after completing all sections of this program. Proceeding from this, tasks are compiled for each of the sections (speech development, physical development, cognitive development, etc.). In addition, the criteria for the levels of material assimilation by children are described.
Step 4
For convenience and clarity, maps are being developed, where all the results for each child are entered. It is very easy to track on them at what moments the child lags behind and to impose correctional work. On average, the correction takes place within two months. At the end of this period, the child should be reassigned.
Step 5
Also in kindergarten, children of preparatory groups are checked for readiness for school. The teacher-psychologist is responsible for its implementation. It is necessary to involve the parents of the pupils in carrying out correctional work with children, since only together with the family are positive results possible.
