About the Book

APEEC is the first measurement scale designed to evaluate the use of developmentally appropriate practices in the early elementary classroom (K-3). Developed for classrooms serving both children with and without disabilities, the APEEC can be used by administrators and researchers to evaluate the degree of developmental appropriateness in inclusive and general education classrooms. It can also be used by teachers as a self-assessment tool. Featuring straightforward language and an easy-to-follow format, APEEC is organized under three main categories:

Physical Environment -- room arrangement, display of child products (e.g., artwork), classroom accessibility, health and safety

Instructional Context -- use of materials and computers, monitoring child progress, teacher-child language, instructional methods, integration and breadth of subjects

Social Context -- children's role in decision-making, participation of children with disabilities, social skills, diversity, transitions between activities, and family involvement
