I Can Do It! A Chapter 53 Screening Resource for Early Childhood Teachers.
New York City Board of Education, Brooklyn, NY. Div. of Curriculum and Instruction.
Focusing on areas of development related to Chapter 53 screening, this manual is designed to assist New York City teachers in using the screening results to support optimal development for the children in their classes. Chapter 53 of the Laws of 1980 provides for the screening of all new entrants into the school system, usually in kindergarten or first grade. The manual includes (1) descriptions of skills measured by the screening process; (2) examples of classroom activities that foster skills development and enhancement; and (3) illustrations of the integration of skills development in curriculum areas. Within the five skill areas covered (gross and fine motor development, cognition, receptive and expressive language, and articulation), interdisciplinary activities and/or activities appropriate to specific subject areas are suggested.
