Boston Public Schools K1 and K2 Programs Needs Assessment. Internal Report to the Department of Early Childhood, Boston Public Schools
Author: Nancy L. Marshall

Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
The Boston Public Schools (BPS) Department of Early Childhood commissioned a needs assessment of current kindergarten (K2) and preschool (K1) programs (1) to inform the BPS Department of Early Childhood about professional development needs to improve the quality of existing K1 and K2 programs; and (2) to inform the Department of additional classroom resources necessary to expand the K1 program to provide universal access for Boston 4 year olds to accredited, full day programs. This report is based on data collected from 43 K1 classrooms and 85 K2 classrooms in 67 different BPS schools in the 2005-2006 school year. Integrated classrooms were included in the sample, as were SEI and bilingual classrooms. The BPS Needs Assessment consisted of classroom observations, surveys of classroom teachers and school principals, as well as surveys completed by 844 families with children in the selected classrooms. The report makes nine recommendations: (1) Bring all K1 and K2 programs up to the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) Early Childhood Program Standards and the BPS Citywide Learning Standards for Kindergarten; (2) Ensure that all classrooms meet the NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards for health and safety; (3) Provide all K1 and K2 classrooms with the equipment and materials needed to provide a high-quality early childhood program for all students; (4) Ensure that all K1 and K2 classrooms have a paraprofessional present for the entire day and that class sizes meet NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards of no more than 10 children per teacher (and paraprofessional) in K1, and no more than 12 children per teacher (and paraprofessional) in K2; (5) Ensure that all K1 and K2 classrooms have a paraprofessional present for the entire day and that class sizes meet NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards of no more than 10 children per teacher (and paraprofessional) in K1, and no more than 12 children per teacher (and paraprofessional) in K2; (6) Boston currently has a system of mixed delivery of early childhood education, including the BPS Early Childhood programs, Head Starts and community centers. Planning efforts and programs of BPS Early Childhood should identify ways to strengthen this mixed delivery system to ensure all children enter school ready to learn; (7) Improve school bus transportation for K1 and K2 children; (8) Provide before and after school programs in the schools; and (9) Expand cooperation between schools and families through additional supports for family-school communication.

Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Laboratory experiences as a part of most U.S. high school science curricula have been taken for granted for decades, but they have rarely been carefully examined. What do they contribute to science learning? What can they contribute to science learning? What is the current status of labs in our nation�s high schools as a context for learning science? This book looks at a range of questions about how laboratory experiences fit into U.S. high schools: What is effective laboratory teaching? What does research tell us about learning in high school science labs? How should student learning in laboratory experiences be assessed? Do all student have access to laboratory experiences? What changes need to be made to improve laboratory experiences for high school students? How can school organization contribute to effective laboratory teaching? With increased attention to the U.S. education system and student outcomes, no part of the high school curriculum should escape scrutiny. This timely book investigates factors that influence a high school laboratory experience, looking closely at what currently takes place and what the goals of those experiences are and should be. Science educators, school administrators, policy makers, and parents will all benefit from a better understanding of the need for laboratory experiences to be an integral part of the science curriculum-and how that can be accomplished.
