Description
Book SynopsisThe Early Childhood Quality Rating Scale â Emergent Curriculum (ECQRS-EC) is designed to measure the quality of support for literacy, mathematics, and science in pre-school settings.
Although different curricular frameworks are used around the world, there is increasing agreement that emerging academic skills should be supported by a playful pedagogy. The ECQRS-EC substantially updates the ECERS-E which was the first observational scale to focus directly on the development of emergent academic skills. This evidence-based tool also includes a subscale dedicated to diversity and inclusion to help educators support gender and cultural differences in children 3-6 years old who are developing at different rates.
This revised quality rating scale recognises the important role of the adult in providing children with high-quality interactions and can be used for research, teacher self-evaluation, and programme improvement, audit and regulation.
