Description
Transdisciplinary Play-Based System (Assessment & Intervention)
A great resource for effective and affordable professional development,
Observing Kassandra lets current and future early childhood professionals simulate a
TPBA2 session with a preschooler who has severe disabilities and health impairments. Professionals will get
- a 50-minute DVD of an actual recorded play session to help them practice their observational and note-taking skills
- a tablet of blank TPBA2 forms to fill out after viewing Kassandra's play session
- a CD-ROM with sample completed TPBA2 and TPBI2 forms to use as models for assessment and intervention
- a helpful workbook with guidance on professional development
Ideal for inservice professionals who want to sharpen their skills or for future practitioners without access to children in real classrooms, this professional development system gives viewers the practice and experience they need to effectively use the
Transdisciplinary Play-Based System.
Observing Kassandra is part of TPBA2 and TPBI2, one of the most natural, easy-to-use assessment and intervention approaches for children birth to age 6. Aligned with DEC and NAEYC guidelines, this popular system gets accurate assessment results and improves child outcomes because it's play-based, child-directed, parent-friendly, and focused on what children can do instead of what they can't.
