Interview an early childhood teacher to learn what assessment tools he or she uses to monitor growth and development on an ongoing basis. Ask questions to gain an understanding of the teacher's experience with referring children for early intervention services. Ask the teacher to share intervention resources and contact information.

Your completed assignment should include at least 10 questions you developed for your interview, your typed interview in narrative form, and a reflection explaining your new understandings related to assessing health and development. Investigate one alternative assessment tool and include in your reflection information you learned about the alternative assessment tool. What components of an assessment tool would be effective or desirable to use in your role as a classroom teacher?
