Assessment System Formerly C-PALLS+Remote Coaching *Provided to

[email protected] OverviewThe CIRCLE Assessment
System is a newly revised version of the Center for Improving the
Readiness of Children for Learning and Education (CIRCLE)
Phonological Awareness Language and Literacy System (C-PALLS,
2004). Over subsequent years, the assessment system was expanded to
include math (2008) and science (2013). However, educators asked
our team of researchers to develop an integrated assessment system
that would cover the content included in the Head Starts Assessment
Framework.
14Questions? Email us at: [email protected] Do Teachers
Assess?Using Data to Improve PracticeQuestions? Email us at:
[email protected] is progress monitoring a critical
component of the CLI Engage platform its because we know that
access to data improves teachers ability to plan instructional
practice.Data use models often look a lot like the teaching and
learning cycleIn the cycle of effective teaching and learning,
assessment is key.Assessment: assessing the concepts or skills to
determine each individual childs level of understanding.Evaluation:
analysis of the assessment results to determine the next step in
the instruction.Planning: plan the next step and decide which
approach to use and the resources needed.Teaching: implement the
plan by introducing a concept to the children or reteaching,
guiding their understanding through practice and feedback.
15Why CIRCLE Assessment System? Well established reliability and
validity when used with 3 and 4 year olds (relates to other tests
and predicts child outcomes).
Designed to be administered quickly and yield immediate feedback
and suggestions for teachers.
Texas School Ready! model research demonstrates that the CIRCLE
Assessment System and the activity groupings/suggestions improved
child outcomes.
Questions? Email us at: [email protected] Assessment
System is formal assessment that provides immediate feedback.
Results are on the screen.Teachers, coaches, parents and
administrators can all partner together to use the data to inform
instruction. Making sound decisions for instruction based on data
is not only wise but standard practice. 16How often is the CIRCLE
Assessment Given?The assessment is given three times out of the
year. BOY Beginning of the YearMOY Middle of the YearEOY End of the
Year
Districts will provide dates for each of the assessment
windows.Questions? Email us at: [email protected]

Phonological Awareness This measure is used to assess a childs
understanding of sound in his/her language. The Phonological
Awareness assessments are not timed assessments.The child does not
look at the screen. This is an auditory assessment.Note: Its very
important when scoring that the teacher be aware of what the
correct answer from the child is. Sometimes the correct answer will
be no and sometimes the correct answer will be yes.Questions? Email
us at: [email protected] Awareness is the ability
to detect the sounds in language without thinking about the meaning
of what is said. It is considered a precursor to phonics and is a
skill that is needed to learn phonics. In the Progress Monitoring
Assessment, Phonological Awareness gauges a childs understanding of
how the sounds of spoken language can be segmented, combined and
manipulated. --- Reminder that students should not see the screen
for this assessment.

** Onset/Rime is only administered to English speaking students.
Spanish speaking students are exempt from this portion of the

The Observable assessment is given separately from the other
sections.The Observables can be used to help support a childs
portfolio.Record notes about specific behavior.Label notes with a
date and time.Note specific interests and strengths as well as
areas of weakness. The components of the Observables include:Social
Screener Early Writing Checklist*Physical Development and
Health*Approaches to Learning
The child does not need to be present during the completion of
an observable checklist.Questions? Email us at:
[email protected] teachers recorded observations, gathered
across time, can help with:
Tailoring classroom environment and activities to meet childrens
needs.Track a childs social, cognitive, and emotional
development.Identify a childs strengths and interests.Share with
parents, supervisors, advisors, and coaches.Make modifications in
the curriculum.
Once this information is collected, a teacher can create a
portfolio of information on the student. It will provide both the
teacher and the parent a picture of a students learning, and
reflect his/her progress in a particular area.
Review the slide.
The observables must be done at the conclusion of the assessment
period. 71Observable ComponentsSocial Screener: observes the childs
social and emotional development. Early Writing Checklist: observes
a childs use of writing in the classroom. Questions? Email us at:
