BRIGANCE Early Childhood Screens III

Early Childhood Screening

Measure age-appropriate skills that lead to school success.

Overview

Big Insights for Little Learners

These early childhood screening resources include three age-specific volumes, allowing educators to quickly assess skills that are critical predictors of school success. Quickly and effectively screen infants, toddlers, and pre-school and kindergarten children to determine age-appropriate skills. Age-specific Data Sheets track early learning skills in the following domains:

  • Physical Development
  • Language Development
  • Academic Skills/Cognitive Development
  • Self-help and Social-Emotional Skills

Screening takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes per child and allows for comparison of performance to the cutoff scores for delays and giftedness as well as to the performance of same-age children. Head Start and Spanish options are available.
