Useful Early Childhood Assessment: Play-Based, Interviews and Multiple Intelligences.

Lowenthal, Barbara

Early Child Development and Care, v129 p43-49 Feb 1997

Describes three types of functional assessment of young children with special needs: play-based, family interviews, and the evaluation of multiple intelligences. Claims that all three types are useful for planning developmentally appropriate interventions and are positive because the emphasis is on the children's and their families' strengths rather than on their weaknesses.(MOK)
