    Product Details

    The Work Sampling System is a criterion-referenced observational assessment with extensive research supporting reliability and validity. 

    Benefits

    • Collect information on the child’s work and compare it to grade-specific guidelines.
    • Identify what children are learning, what they are beginning to master, and what they still need to work on.
    • Use your observations and simplify the process of recording and interpreting them.
    • Inform curriculum and instruction planning.

    Features

    WSS includes three interrelated elements — Portfolios, Developmental Guidelines and Checklists, and Summary Reports — customized for each grade level.

    • Two kits available: Complete Classroom Implementation Kit (P3, P4, K through Grade 6) and Multi-Age Complete Classroom Implementation Kit (P3 and P4 combined).
    • Teacher’s manual provides an overview, explains each element of the system, gives step-by-step procedures, and offers practical suggestions.
    • Portfolio samples are gathered throughout the year and help demonstrate progress.
    • Developmental guidelines cover seven major curriculum areas: personal and social development, language and literacy, mathematical thinking, scientific thinking, social studies, the arts, and physical development and health.
    • Summary reports replace conventional report cards as a way of recording progress, communicating with parents, and meeting reporting requirements.
