Good afternoon. We are gearing up to go through the renewal process again and I wanted to get some clarification on a couple of items.
1. We are a large center and we have 20 classrooms divided in the following way:
2 classrooms are considered toddlers (12-24 months)
4 classrooms are considered two's (24-36 months)
7 classrooms are considered preschool (3's and 4's)
7 classrooms are considered pre-k (4's and 5's)
When doing our classroom portfolios will it be sufficient to have one portfolio for each of the different age groups instead of one for each individual classroom?
Also when looking at the criteria is it acceptable for us to lump our toddlers and two's in the same category? Meaning whenever there is a "T" in the portfolio or observation criteria both toddlers and two's will do these criteria?
Any director or feedback would be much appreciated!
