Early Childhood Education

"Early Childhood Education is a practical guide for enhancing service delivery through innovative directions in assessment and intervention. The authors thoughtfully discuss RTI’s applications with a focus on assessment and intervention in domains essential for school success. This text should serve as a valuable resource for educators, administrators, and those interested in strengthening early education and its role in a seamless service delivery model."

—Robin L. Hojnoski, PhD, associate professor of school psychology at Lehigh University

"The authors have assembled an impressive body of work on an emerging area of practice in early childhood education—multi-tiered service-delivery models. The result is a handy reference guide that does more than introduce early educators to this topic: it bridges the gulf between theory and practice by offering practical information on the implementation of these practices in ways that promote child development and family engagement."

—Virginia Buysse, PhD, senior scientist and project director at the Recognition & Response Project, Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

"During this extraordinary time of development in evidence-based early childhood education practice, there is a void of summative resources that describe the assessments and interventions available to practitioners engaged in improving multi-tiered services. This incredibly informative text highlights important components of a preschool-friendly multi-tiered service-delivery model. A well-organized book, it can be used in internship training settings and school districts as a foundational resource for those enriching early childhood education services in our special-education and inclusive settings."
