EYE-DA

Early Years Evaluation - Direct Assessment (EYE-DA)

Let’s Get Ready for Kindergarten!

Successful learning takes place when children are supported by families, schools, and communities. The challenge is that many children enter kindergarten with cognitive or language skills that are one or more years behind their peers.

The EYE-DA can help families, schools, and communities ensure a more positive transition to school.

  • Many learning difficulties can be prevented with early identification, excellent classroom instruction, and appropriate intervention. The Early Years Evaluation – Direct Assessment (EYE-DA) helps educators plan for diverse learning needs before children enter kindergarten.

  • Educators can use the data to:

    • Facilitate open communication between families and educators

    • Identify children who may need educational support early on, enabling assistance before or upon school entry

    • Establish a baseline for tracking learning progress

    • Access immediate, multi-level reporting for informed decision-making

    • Recognize children who may benefit from additional experiences in specific areas

    • Support families in preparing their children for each new stage of schooling
