A workshop designed to present teachers and administrators with information on assessment issues and instruments related to developmentally appropriate practices in early childhood classrooms is presented in this guide for trainers. The workshop is process-oriented, meaning that participants will be engaged in activities that require them to absorb and share new information. The activities include the presentation of introductory material, resource information, and a summary. Activities address assessment from the developmentally appropriate perspective; the development of an assessment plan; and the writing of desired outcomes. The trainer's guide contains an overall design and purposes for the workshop, a training agenda that lists each activity and the time and materials required for it, and individual instruction sheets for each activity. These sheets include procedures to be followed during the activity and references to appropriate transparencies and participant handouts. Copies of the 17 handouts and 18 transparencies used are included. One of the handouts is an annotated bibliography containing 42 items. (BC)
