Tracking Progress toward the School Readiness Goal.
Engel, Penelope
Educational Leadership, v48 n5 p39-42 Feb 1991
We need to develop better forms of school readiness assessment that do not encourage tracking, narrowing the curriculum, or kindergarten retention. This article describes three examples of work-in-progress from the state of Georgia, a test publisher (CTB Macmillan/McGraw-Hill), and a research scientist, Samuel Meisels. Includes seven references.
