3. OBJECTIVES:
1.To gain knowledge on what is assessment
2. To acquire knowledge on Informal Assessments
like ECCD and Phil IRI
3. To. realize the importance of ECCD and Phil-IRI
on the development and learning improvement
of a learner
3. To gain insights on how to administer the ECCD
and Phil IRI
5. To prepare an informal assessment material
4. Assessment is a process of
collecting information. Assessing each
child’s development and learnings are
essential processes for educators and
programs to plan, implement, and
evaluate the effectiveness of the
experiences they provide to children.
What is Assessment?
5. Assessment in a classroom
helps teachers know important
information about how your child is
learning or how instruction could
change to match your child’s
learning needs.
What is Assessment?
6. It also helps you understand what
your child knows, how much is known,
and what still needs to be learned. As a
parent, caregiver, or teacher, you are
likely aware that there are a lot of
different types of assessments.
What is Assessment?
7. .
Assessment includes both formal and
informal measures as tools for monitoring
children’s progress toward a program’s desired
goals. Educators can be intentional about helping
children to progress when they know where each
child is with respect to learning goals.
10. Informal assessments are more casual,
observation-based tools. With little advance
preparation and no need to grade the
results, these assessments allow teachers to get
a feel for student progress and identify areas in
which they might need more instruction.
These can help teachers pinpoint students’
strengths and weaknesses and guide
planning for upcoming lessons.
11. Informal assessments
The word ‘informal’ conjures up the vision of
something easy, relaxed, fun, and friendly unlike its
opposite term ‘formal’.
12. .
Why is Informal Assessment
Important?
In the classroom, informal assessments
are important because
they can help identify potential
problem areas and allow for course
correction before students are required
to demonstrate understanding at a
formal evaluation.
13. Informal assessments can also
provide vital student
feedback without the stress of
tests and quizzes.
14. Following are just a few examples
of creative informal assessments for
your classroom or homeschool.
15. 1. Observation
Observation is the heart of any
informal assessment, but it is also a key
stand-alone method. Simply watch your
student throughout the day. Look for
signs of excitement, frustration,
boredom, and engagement. Make notes
about the tasks and activities that elicit
these emotions.

Example :
The Philippine Early Childhood
Development (Phil. ECD) Checklist is
designed for service providers like
teachers, rural health midwives, child
development and day care workers,
parents/caregivers who can easily
administer after a brief training period.
18. .
By using the checklist, they will be
able to determine if a child is developing
adequately,or is at risk for developmental
delays. This Checklist is NOT intended
to be used to:1) make a medical
diagnosis;
2) determine a child’s
intelligence
quotient or IQ; or

achievement. It is only the first of
several steps in a comprehensive
assessment process that a child at
risk is expected to go through so he
can get the help he needs as early as
possible.
20. .
The Checklist consists of a Child’s Record, divided
into two parts: Child’s Record 1 for children aged 0
months to 3.0 years; Child Record 2 is for children
aged 3 years and 1 month to 5 years and 11 months.
The items in the Checklist are grouped into seven
domains:
1) gross motor, 2) fine motor, 3) self-help, 4) receptive
language, 5) expressive language, 6) cognitive, and
7) social-emotional. The Child Record 2 will be
utilized for the kindergarten learners of the
Department of Education.

26. 2. Oral Presentations
We often think of oral presentations as a
type of formal assessment, but they can be a
fantastic informal assessment tool, as well.
For example, if you are learning about
parts of speech, you could ask your students
to name as many prepositions as they can in
30 seconds while you write them on the
whiteboard.
27. 3. Journaling
Give your students one to three
minutes at the end of each day to
journal about what they learned.
Vary the daily journaling
experience by asking students to:
List 5-10 facts they’ve learned
about a topic
28. •write about the most exciting thing they
learned that day
•list one or two things they’d like to know
more about
•note something that they’re having trouble
understanding
•list ways that you could help them
understand a topic better
29. 4. Paper Toss
Let your students write
questions for each other on a piece of
paper. Instruct students to crumple
their paper. Let them have an epic
paper wad toss. Then, have all the
students pick up one of the paper
balls, read the question aloud, and
answer it.
30. 5. Four Corners
Four Corners is another fantastic activity for
getting kids up and moving while also assessing
their knowledge. Label each corner of the room
with a different option such as strongly agree,
agree, disagree, strongly disagree, or A, B, C, and D.
Read a question or statement and have students go
to the corner of the room that represents their
answer.
31.
32. 6. Matching Concentration
Let your students play matching (also
known as concentration) in groups or
pairs. Write questions on one set of cards
and answers on the other. Shuffle the
cards and lay them, one by one, face
down on a table. Students take turns
turning over two cards trying to match a
question card with the correct answer
card.
33. If a student makes a match, he gets
another turn. If he does not, it’s the next
players turn. The student with the most
matches wins.
Concentration is an extremely
versatile game. You can use math facts
and their answers, vocabulary words
and their definitions, or historical figures
or events with their dates or details.
