The Evaluation of Quality of NJ’s Preschool Classrooms 2009

This study examines the quality of New Jersey's preschool classrooms using PCMI (math), SELA (literacy), and ECERS evaluations by William Paterson University in 2008. Results show improvements in literacy and mathematics scores from 2005 to 2009. The study assesses supports for early literacy, print/book concepts, phonological awareness, math materials, activities/interactions, and overall classroom environment using various rating scales. The ECERS-R subscale scores indicate the lowest and highest aspects of classroom activities.
