Thank you for hosting our team of evaluators to better support
your program’s educational success. We are looking forward to
reviewing the results of the assessments the Connor Street Early
Childhood Program participated in with the families, staff, and
children. We will also be discussing how to create goals for the
program and providing recommendations on how to implement
those goals. This will also be a great opportunity to ask
questions and discuss your ideas on how you as educators will
implement these ideas into your classrooms.
All About Your Program
● Connor Street serves low-income and working-class families.
● Evaluation data is based of four classrooms of 4-year-olds.
Each class has one teacher and one assistant teacher.
(Walden University, 2022)
Connor Street Early Childhood Program is made up of 20%
Hispanic students, 2 students are Asian, and 3 students are from
the Caribbean. The school serves working-class and low-income
families and as a result all but three of the students in the
program are at school between 7 to 9 hours a day. The
evaluation data is based on four classrooms of 4-year-olds with
one teacher and one assistant teacher.
Strengths: Families
Positive and respectful relationships with staff
Open communication
Rules, expectations, and procedures are clear for parents
Program invites parents into the classroom and to events
Program connects families and community
(Walden University, 2022)
When looking at the NAEYC Self-Assessment Family Survey,
there were many survey questions where all 29 families
surveyed acknowledged strengths within the Connor Street
program. This reflects many of the wonderful things you as staff
are doing at Connor Street! Families noted that the staff at
Connor Street were good teachers who cared for their children.
Families said staff had a good relationship with the children and
parents and are good at communicating what is going on at
school and checking in to see how things are going at home.
Families acknowledged that they knew the rules and procedures
of the school and Connor Street’s mission and philosophy.
Families surveyed felt that Connor Street staff actively engaged
with families and the community through events. Lastly,
families felt they were invited into the classrooms to participate
in their child’s learning throughout the year.
Strengths: Staff
Staff feel supported by the program administration.
Strong, positive relationships between staff, families, and the
community
Curriculum is inclusive and supports the needs of all students.
Teachers collaborate.
A variety of assessments are used
Assessments inform future teaching.
Assessments happen regularly and are communicated to parents.
(Walden University, 2022)
Some staff members present today may be familiar with the PAS
assessment and what it is used for, but for others, this may be
the first time you are hearing about this assessment. Before we
look at how Connor School scored on the PAS assessment, we
all must understand what PAS is. PAS stands for Program
Administration Scale. It is an assessment completed by program
directors to examine the administration, leadership conditions,
and management of early childhood programs. The assessment
consists of 25 questions, divided into ten subscales. These 25
questions are rated on a scale of one to seven. PAS can be
completed as a self-assessment for progress to see how the
administration is doing. In this case, we are using PAS as an
evaluation for NAEYC accreditation.

Each evaluation is unique in how it is assessed and the results
that are collected. We will be discussing those results today in-
depth and how they have impacted your program. We are
looking forward to defining strengths and areas of focus that the
Connor Street Early Childhood Program can strengthen and
improve upon based on the evaluations conducted.
Evaluation 1:Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test:
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT-IV) is utilized
to assess children’s language and literacy skills in the area of
receptive vocabulary. The assessment tool is widely known in
early childhood and findings are deemed reliable (Walden
University, 2022).
Receptive Vocabulary: words that children comprehend and
respond to.
Good Morning Connor Street, as mentioned above your program
was evaluated using various assessment tools. The Peabody
Picture Vocabulary Test, 4th Edition or (PPVT-IV) was used to
assess children’s language and literacy skills in the area of
receptive vocabulary. assess children’s language and literacy
skills in the area of receptive vocabulary. The assessment tool is
widely known and deemed reliable (Walden University, 2022).
Evaluation 1: The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, (PPVT-IV)
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, showed that Conner
Street four-year-olds scored in the 62nd percentile as whole.
Additional, data however; shows low scores for both low -
income and Spanish speaking children.
Low-income: 41st percentile, and Spanish-speaking families
scored below the mean of the national sample (Walden
University, 2022).
Common trends exist in additional evaluations.

In later slides, we discuss common trends in language and
literacy development within the data set. Based on major
findings, Spanish-speaking families in particular struggle in
language and literacy thus; presenting an inconsistency across
evaluations Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS)
and Teacher Rating of Oral Language and Literacy (TROLL).

Evaluation 2 : CLASS
Reviews the importance of student-teacher interactions
Supports children’s development and learning
Engaging interactions and environments
Provides instructional support for teachers
(Classroom Assessment Scoring System, 2021)
The Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) is an
observation instrument that assesses the quality of teacher -child
interactions in center-based preschool classrooms. CLASS
includes three domains or categories of teacher-child
interactions that support children's learning and development:
Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Instructional
Support. Within each domain are dimensions that capture more
specific details about teachers' interactions with children.
Evaluation 2 : CLASS
Results
Positive Feedback
“Created positive classroom climate”
“Responsive to the children’s needs and abilities”
Classroom organization two teachers rated above 5.0 and one
newest teachers at 3.9
Areas of Focus/Negative Feedback
Two of four teachers rated below 3.0
Dual language correction
Small and large group interaction opposed to encouraging
children to speak more
(Walden University, 2022)
The results of the CLASS assessment proved that the teachers
observed create a positive learning environment and built strong
connections with their students. There are positive interactions
across the three domains: emotional support, classroom
organization, and instructional support. Though there were
positive results based on the CLASS observations, there were
also areas of focus in which needed to be improved upon when
working with dual language learners. The other area of focus
was language modeling. One teacher was found to do most of
the talking in small and large groups and not encouraging the
children to talk.
Evaluation 2 : CLASS and TROLL
TROLL - assess skills identified as critical in speaking and
listening
CLASS - evaluates interactions between teachers and their
students
Impact
TROLL results showed that dual language learners had
significantly lower levels of oral interaction than their English
speaking peers
CLASS results showed that one of the teachers corrected low-
income and dual language learners on their English usage
(Dickinson, McCabe, & Sprague, 2003)
The CLASS observations have negatively impacted the TROLL
evaluation. This is due to the teacher who was observed to
correct low-income and dual language learners on their English
language, which has proven to stunt language growth. Once
there is better support in working with children on lower oral
and language literacy there will be better results among the
CLASS and TROLL evaluations.
Evaluation 3 : PAS
PAS stands for Program Administration Scale.
Evaluated by the program director
Consists of 25 questions, divided into ten subscales, rated on a
1-7 scale
Measures the administration, management, and leadership
conditions in early childhood programs.
PAS can be used for programs to self-assess or as part of a
program evaluation or accreditation process.
(Pennsylvania Keystone Stars Office of Child Development and
Early Learning, 2017; Walden University, 2022 )
The ten subscales of the PAS assessment help program
administration pinpoint key areas of strength and weakness. The
ten PAS subscales are human resources development, personnel
cost and allocation, center operations, child assessment, fiscal
management, program planning and evaluation, family
partnerships, marketing and public relations, technology, and
staff qualifications. Now that we know the ten subscales, we
will look at how Connor School scored on the PAS assessment
and which subscales we will focus on for program improvement.
Evaluation 3: PAS Overview
The 10 PAS subscale are:
Human Resources Development
Personnel Cost and Allocation
Center Operations
Child Assessment
Fiscal Management
(Pennsylvania Keystone Stars Office of Child Development and
Early Learning, 2017)
Program Planning and Evaluation
Family Partnerships
Marketing and Public Relations
Technology
Staff Qualifications

and which subscales we will focus on for program improvement.
Evaluation 3 :
PAS Major Findings at Connors Street
Overall, Connor Street scored well on the PAS evaluation.
All but two areas received average or above average ratings.
Subscales that were below average:
Staff Qualifications- Not much progress on PAS was made by
staff in the last three years
Programming and Evaluation- Though staff met for planning,
not much specific and purposeful planning was done over the
last two years.
(Walden University, 2022)
Overall, Connors Street scored well on the PAS evaluation.
Connor Street scored average or above average in all but two
subscales. Connor Street scored below average on two
subscales: staff qualifications and programming and
evaluations. For staff qualifications, the below -average score
was due to the lack of progress teachers made working on their
PAS. For programming and evaluations, the below-average
score was due to the lack of time staff had participated in
strategic planning. Connor Street can quickly increase its scores
in both areas by having devoted time for collaborative staff
planning. You, as teachers, know there is never enough time in
the day to talk and collaborate with other teachers and staff. If
time is devoted weekly to allow staff to work on their PAS and
strategically plan with other staff members, these subscales will
increase to average in no time!
Evaluation 4 - NAEYC Accreditation
Correlation between high quality care and positive outcomes for
children!
Supports teachers as they learn to develop research based best
practices for students.
Families can expect to build relationships with teachers and
staff.
Community resources made available.
(National Association for the Education of Young Children,
n.d.)
Congratulations on deciding to go through the NAEYC
Accreditation process! Becoming accredited is the first step to
committing to a high-quality center for both students and
teachers! There are many benefits to accreditation. Children
will benefit from having teachers that are well prepared and
able to offer developmentally appropriate lessons for students
as well as prepare them for school. Teachers can expect to be
supported through research and best practices as well as support
from other programs that have gone through the accreditation
process. Families will also benefit as they build relationships
with teachers and staff and use resources offered through the
program and the community.
Evaluation 4 NAEYC Accreditation Standards
(National Association for the Education of Young Children,
n.d.)
NAEYC Accreditation process uses ten standards that when put
together provides a high-level of quality care for children birth
through kindergarten. The first set of standards is geared toward
children in the program and is comprised of assessment of child
progress, curriculum, health, relationships, and teaching. The
next set of standards reflects on teacher practices, relationships
with families and the community, and finally administration.
The standards focusing on administration concentrate on
physical environment, leadership, and management. The
program will complete a self-survey where they assess and
document evidence of meeting high-quality standards. This
includes surveys completed by both teachers, staff, and
families. Once the self-study is complete the program will
invite an accreditation site visit. Data taken from both the si te
visit and the submitted portfolio will be evaluated and an
accreditation decision report will be sent within three months of
the site visit.
Evaluation 5 - NAEYC Accreditation Decision Report
(Walden University, 2022)
Connor Streets Evaluation 5 was the NAEYC Accreditation
Decision Report regarding the standard relating to families.
Connor Street scored a 93%. In order for Connor Street to meet
this standard they would have to create a program that includes
reciprocal relationships with families. This means that families
need to be treated like partners in the school where they help
make decisions and they feel their voices are heard. Based on
the NAEYC Self-Assessment Family Survey, 41% of families
said the teacher and program work with them to meet their
child’s individual or special needs and help get other resources
with the community. 21% of families said no they did not feel
like they receive support or resources to meet their child’s
needs. The other 38% found the question to not apply to them.
The NAEYC Accreditation Decision Report suggests an area for
Improvement is to have resources available and ability to help
families obtain services which are needed for the child and
family to thrive.
Comparisons and Trends
TROLL & Peabody Picture Test both found Dual Language
Learners need more support on oral language and literacy skills.
PAS & CLASS both find that Connor Street’s leadership and
classroom environments can be improved.
NAEYC Teacher Self-Assessment reflects the need for
professional development.
NAEYC Family Self-Assessment reflects the need for more
resources and individual student support.
(Walden University, 2022)
After reviewing the different evaluations conducted by Connor
Street, the recurring trends that stick out to us based on the
TROLL & Peabody Picture Test, are that both oral language and
literacy needs to improve, especially for Dual Language
Learners (DLL). The PAS and the CLASS evaluations indicate
that leadership and management are not supporting teacher
professional development which is reflected on the CLASS
evaluation where two out of the four classes scored below a 3.0
which is what is needed to foster an environment that promotes
language and literacy. The NAEYC Family Self-Assessment
also reflects that families are not receiving the necessary
resources to meet individual student needs. Families surveyed
indicated that community resources are not made available.
Program Recommendations
Program Recommendations for Conner Street are:
Identify strategies to implement home language into the
classroom through, culture text, environmental print, songs, or
other methods to enrich language and literacy for dual-language
learners.
Develop professional development opportunities for staff to
become bilingual in the program’s majority language.
Adhere, to recommendations and meet monthly to discussion
professional development progress. Follow through, was found
to be an issue for Conner Street.

Introduction
Data has been an integral part of our education system for
decades. As professionals we use it as a tool to drive
instruction primarily. However, on a larger scale, data runs the
educational process through progress, success, and achievement.
Furthermore, program evaluations are a vital tool that provide
this important data that not only ensures program success but
the overall development of every child (Saracho, 2015).

The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test Fourth Edition (PPVT™-
4) is the outstanding vocabulary assessment unsurpassed for
nearly a half century.
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Fourth Edition (PPVT-
IV), measures listening and understanding of single-word
vocabulary .
It was developed for individuals 2 years 6 months old through
greater than 90 years old.
This brief test provides an approximate estimate of intelligence
by measuring receptive vocabulary and replaces the
original Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) published in
1959 (Dunn & Dunn, 1981).
The 1981 version retains many of its predecessor’s best
features: it consists of two equivalent forms, allows for a verbal
or nonverbal response, and is untimed.

The Teacher Rating of Oral Language and Literacy (TROLL) is
an instrument that measures skills identified as critical in the
New Standards for Speaking and Listening.
Teachers can assess an individual child's current standing with
respect to skills that research has identified as critical for
literary acquisition.
TROLL has been used with over 900 low-income children. The
instrument is reliable and has strong internal consistency. Its
validity has been established in numerous ways.
TROLL correlates significantly with scores on the Peabody
Picture Vocabulary Test and the Early Phonemic Awareness
Profile given to the same children by trained researchers.

Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) is an
observation instrument which considers three categories, or
domains, that support a child’s learning and development.
The three umbrella domains are Emotional Support, Classroom
Organization, and Instructional Support.
The interactions between a teacher and a child are vital to a
child’s learning and development. Research and developmental
theory indicates that these interactions in early childhood
classrooms, along with the overall learning environment, is
foundational to learning.
The quality of teacher-child interactions is assessed using the
Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS).

The Program Administration Scale or PAS is an evaluation tool
that is given to assess leadership manageme nt for early
childhood education programs. There are several indicators
included within the four subscales seen here in the graph.
Program Self-Improvement, technical assistance and
monitoring, research and evaluation, and public awareness
encompass the areas of concern within this tool. For Connor
Street an overall positive rating is observed. However, there
are areas of below average rating which need improvement.
Teacher support and instruction should be a concern, while also
strategically planning more effectively.

All About Your Program ● Connor Street serves low-income and working-class families. ● Evaluation data is based of four classrooms of 4-year-olds. Each class has one teacher and one assistant teacher. (Walden University, 2022) Connor Street Early Childhood Program is made up of 20% Hispanic students, 2 students are Asian, and 3 students are from the Caribbean. The school serves working-class and low-income families and as a result all but three of the students in the program are at school between 7 to 9 hours a day. The evaluation data is based on four classrooms of 4-year-olds with one teacher and one assistant teacher. Strengths: Families Positive and respectful relationships with staff Open communication Rules, expectations, and procedures are clear for parents Program invites parents into the classroom and to events Program connects families and community (Walden University, 2022)
  • 3. When looking at the NAEYC Self-Assessment Family Survey, there were many survey questions where all 29 families surveyed acknowledged strengths within the Connor Street program. This reflects many of the wonderful things you as staff are doing at Connor Street! Families noted that the staff at Connor Street were good teachers who cared for their children. Families said staff had a good relationship with the children and parents and are good at communicating what is going on at school and checking in to see how things are going at home. Families acknowledged that they knew the rules and procedures of the school and Connor Street’s mission and philosophy. Families surveyed felt that Connor Street staff actively engaged with families and the community through events. Lastly, families felt they were invited into the classrooms to participate in their child’s learning throughout the year. Strengths: Staff Staff feel supported by the program administration. Strong, positive relationships between staff, families, and the community Curriculum is inclusive and supports the needs of all students. Teachers collaborate.

  • 4. Some staff members present today may be familiar with the PAS assessment and what it is used for, but for others, this may be the first time you are hearing about this assessment. Before we look at how Connor School scored on the PAS assessment, we all must understand what PAS is. PAS stands for Program Administration Scale. It is an assessment completed by program directors to examine the administration, leadership conditions, and management of early childhood programs. The assessment consists of 25 questions, divided into ten subscales. These 25 questions are rated on a scale of one to seven. PAS can be completed as a self-assessment for progress to see how the administration is doing. In this case, we are using PAS as an evaluation for NAEYC accreditation. Evaluations Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test CLASS PAS NAEYC Accreditation Decision Report Each evaluation is unique in how it is assessed and the results that are collected. We will be discussing those results today in- depth and how they have impacted your program. We are looking forward to defining strengths and areas of focus that the Connor Street Early Childhood Program can strengthen and improve upon based on the evaluations conducted.
  • 5. Evaluation 1:Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test: The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT-IV) is utilized to assess children’s language and literacy skills in the area of receptive vocabulary. The assessment tool is widely known in early childhood and findings are deemed reliable (Walden University, 2022). Receptive Vocabulary: words that children comprehend and respond to. Good Morning Connor Street, as mentioned above your program was evaluated using various assessment tools.

Evaluation 2 : CLASS Reviews the importance of student-teacher interactions Supports children’s development and learning Engaging interactions and environments Provides instructional support for teachers (Classroom Assessment Scoring System, 2021) The Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) is an observation instrument that assesses the quality of teacher -child interactions in center-based preschool classrooms. CLASS includes three domains or categories of teacher-child interactions that support children's learning and development: Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Instructional Support. Within each domain are dimensions that capture more specific details about teachers' interactions with children. Evaluation 2 : CLASS Results Positive Feedback “Created positive classroom climate” “Responsive to the children’s needs and abilities” Classroom organization two teachers rated above 5.0 and one newest teachers at 3.9 Areas of Focus/Negative Feedback Two of four teachers rated below 3.0 Dual language correction
  • 8. Small and large group interaction opposed to encouraging children to speak more (Walden University, 2022) The results of the CLASS assessment proved that the teachers observed create a positive learning environment and built strong connections with their students. There are positive interactions across the three domains: emotional support, classroom organization, and instructional support. Though there were positive results based on the CLASS observations, there were also areas of focus in which needed to be improved upon when working with dual language learners. The other area of focus was language modeling. One teacher was found to do most of the talking in small and large groups and not encouraging the children to talk. Evaluation 2 : CLASS and TROLL TROLL - assess skills identified as critical in speaking and listening CLASS - evaluates interactions between teachers and their students Impact TROLL results showed that dual language learners had significantly lower levels of oral interaction than their English speaking peers CLASS results showed that one of the teachers corrected low- income and dual language learners on their English usage
  • 9. (Dickinson, McCabe, & Sprague, 2003) The CLASS observations have negatively impacted the TROLL evaluation. This is due to the teacher who was observed to correct low-income and dual language learners on their English language, which has proven to stunt language growth. Once there is better support in working with children on lower oral and language literacy there will be better results among the CLASS and TROLL evaluations. Evaluation 3 : PAS PAS stands for Program Administration Scale. Evaluated by the program director Consists of 25 questions, divided into ten subscales, rated on a 1-7 scale Measures the administration, management, and leadership conditions in early childhood programs. PAS can be used for programs to self-assess or as part of a program evaluation or accreditation process.

Evaluation 3 : PAS Major Findings at Connors Street Overall, Connor Street scored well on the PAS evaluation. All but two areas received average or above average ratings. Subscales that were below average: Staff Qualifications- Not much progress on PAS was made by staff in the last three years Programming and Evaluation- Though staff met for planning, not much specific and purposeful planning was done over the last two years. (Walden University, 2022) Overall, Connors Street scored well on the PAS evaluation. Connor Street scored average or above average in all but two subscales. Connor Street scored below average on two subscales: staff qualifications and programming and evaluations. For staff qualifications, the below -average score was due to the lack of progress teachers made working on their PAS. For programming and evaluations, the below-average
  • 12. score was due to the lack of time staff had participated in strategic planning. Connor Street can quickly increase its scores in both areas by having devoted time for collaborative staff planning. You, as teachers, know there is never enough time in the day to talk and collaborate with other teachers and staff. If time is devoted weekly to allow staff to work on their PAS and strategically plan with other staff members, these subscales will increase to average in no time!

Congratulations on deciding to go through the NAEYC Accreditation process! Becoming accredited is the first step to committing to a high-quality center for both students and teachers! There are many benefits to accreditation.

Teachers can expect to be supported through research and best practices as well as support from other programs that have gone through the accreditation
  • 13. process. Families will also benefit as they build relationships with teachers and staff and use resources offered through the program and the community. Evaluation 4 NAEYC Accreditation Standards (National Association for the Education of Young Children, n.d.) NAEYC Accreditation process uses ten standards that when put together provides a high-level of quality care for children birth through kindergarten. The first set of standards is geared toward children in the program and is comprised of assessment of child progress, curriculum, health, relationships, and teaching. The next set of standards reflects on teacher practices, relationships with families and the community, and finally administration. The standards focusing on administration concentrate on physical environment, leadership, and management. The program will complete a self-survey where they assess and document evidence of meeting high-quality standards. This includes surveys completed by both teachers, staff, and families. Once the self-study is complete the program will invite an accreditation site visit. Data taken from both the si te visit and the submitted portfolio will be evaluated and an accreditation decision report will be sent within three months of the site visit. Evaluation 5 - NAEYC Accreditation Decision Report (Walden University, 2022)
  • 14. Connor Streets Evaluation 5 was the NAEYC Accreditation Decision Report regarding the standard relating to families. Connor Street scored a 93%. In order for Connor Street to meet this standard they would have to create a program that includes reciprocal relationships with families. This means that families need to be treated like partners in the school where they help make decisions and they feel their voices are heard. Based on the NAEYC Self-Assessment Family Survey, 41% of families said the teacher and program work with them to meet their child’s individual or special needs and help get other resources with the community. 21% of families said no they did not feel like they receive support or resources to meet their child’s needs. The other 38% found the question to not apply to them. The NAEYC Accreditation Decision Report suggests an area for Improvement is to have resources available and ability to help families obtain services which are needed for the child and family to thrive. Comparisons and Trends TROLL & Peabody Picture Test both found Dual Language Learners need more support on oral language and literacy skills. PAS & CLASS both find that Connor Street’s leadership and classroom environments can be improved. NAEYC Teacher Self-Assessment reflects the need for professional development. NAEYC Family Self-Assessment reflects the need for more resources and individual student support. (Walden University, 2022)
  • 15. After reviewing the different evaluations conducted by Connor Street, the recurring trends that stick out to us based on the TROLL & Peabody Picture Test, are that both oral language and literacy needs to improve, especially for Dual Language Learners (DLL). The PAS and the CLASS evaluations indicate that leadership and management are not supporting teacher professional development which is reflected on the CLASS evaluation where two out of the four classes scored below a 3.0 which is what is needed to foster an environment that promotes language and literacy. The NAEYC Family Self-Assessment also reflects that families are not receiving the necessary resources to meet individual student needs. Families surveyed indicated that community resources are not made available. Program Recommendations Program Recommendations for Conner Street are: Identify strategies to implement home language into the classroom through, culture text, environmental print, songs, or other methods to enrich language and literacy for dual-language learners. Develop professional development opportunities for staff to become bilingual in the program’s majority language.

However, on a larger scale, data runs the educational process through progress, success, and achievement. Furthermore, program evaluations are a vital tool that provide this important data that not only ensures program success but the overall development of every child (Saracho, 2015).

Annual Review ‹#› Let’s Take a Closer look at the Data for each evaluation tool.. 8/5/2022 Annual Review ‹#› The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test Fourth Edition (PPVT™- 4) is the outstanding vocabulary assessment unsurpassed for nearly a half century. The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Fourth Edition (PPVT- IV), measures listening and understanding of single-word vocabulary . It was developed for individuals 2 years 6 months old through greater than 90 years old. This brief test provides an approximate estimate of intelligence by measuring receptive vocabulary and replaces the original Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) published in 1959 (Dunn & Dunn, 1981). The 1981 version retains many of its predecessor’s best features: it consists of two equivalent forms, allows for a verbal or nonverbal response, and is untimed.

Teachers can assess an individual child's current standing with respect to skills that research has identified as critical for literary acquisition. TROLL has been used with over 900 low-income children. The instrument is reliable and has strong internal consistency. Its validity has been established in numerous ways. TROLL correlates significantly with scores on the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Early Phonemic Awareness Profile given to the same children by trained researchers.

The three umbrella domains are Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Instructional Support. The interactions between a teacher and a child are vital to a child’s learning and development. Research and developmental theory indicates that these interactions in early childhood classrooms, along with the overall learning environment, is foundational to learning.
