David Deming Theory
The report that I am assessing is by David Deming entitled Early Childhood Intervention and Life-Cycle Skill Development: Evidence from Head Start. Dr. Deming’s report focuses on the long term effects of Head Start. Head Start is the program that I chose to evaluate for most of this course and as such I chose a report that focuses on Head Start as well.

Background
Head Start began in 1965 as a preschool program for low income children. The Head Start program also includes health, nutrition and social services to children and their families providing a more holistic approach to addressing the needs of the children in the program.

    What Are The Pros And Cons For Head Start

    Crystal, there is Head start centers in many cities for children with low income families, disabilities, and speech issues. This service is free if you meet the income guidelines. I see pros and cons for Head start. I feel this government funded service is misused in some ways because the bus will pick the children up, feed the children, and the employees will care for the children while the parents remain home unemployed. I feel the parents should have to work or attend school to receive the service. This would allow more children to get enrolled for working families who need it.…

    standards and school readiness. Being committed to educating every child is an important strategy in the effort to increase a child’s development and learning standards. School readiness matters. According to Gramling, it is clear that child development is very profitable to a child’s learning environment. It’s also clear that in order to build a greater education system we must have a much higher quality early childhood program. I believe it begins with the children. Since children begin learning even before they enter school, it is important that the core of social and economic education be laid early in their…

    Competency Goal 8

    As an Early Head Start teacher, I utilize two developmental screening tools, the Brigance Screens and the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, to determine if there are any potential developmental delays present in the children participating in my program. I allow the child to become comfortable in the program before administering these tools, typically using them when the child has been enrolled at least a month. In order to gain maximal benefit and assist in the individualization of my program, I make sure that these tools are administered and scored within the first 45 days of attendance. If a child scores low on the first screening, I notify the parents and work with the child to see if I can strengthen skills in the area(s) where there is a deficit. I then conduct the screening again about 60 days later. If there is skill a concern at this point, I hold a conference with the child’s parents and make a pre-referral to the Special Needs/Mental Health Coordinator for Head Start/Early Head Start.…
