Cindy Wheeler – NC DPI, Office of Early Learning
A Supplementary Manual to Support the Evaluation of Teachers of Young Children, Specifically Pre-K and
Kindergarten Teachers Who are Required to Hold and Maintain a NC Teaching License, While Teaching in
Public or Nonpublic Schools
Purpose of the Manual
To help make the NC TEP (Teacher Evaluation Process) meaningful to early
childhood educators in public and nonpublic school classrooms
•e.g., how to translate the North Carolina Professional Teaching Standards
& Elements into indicators of high quality teaching in early childhood
classrooms (preschool through Kindergarten)
•
•
To illustrate how the NC TEP can be used to promote the professional
development of early childhood teachers (e.g., self-assessment process,
Professional Learning Communities)
To outline the procedures and identify resources for using the NC TEP with
early childhood teachers in public and nonpublic classrooms
• Across settings - Public and nonpublic settings
• Across grade levels - Pre-k and Kindergarten
• Across roles - Administrators, principals, teachers, mentors, evaluators,
coaches and facilitators
•
Purpose of the Manual
• To be responsive to the expanding demand for early education and the
expanding role of early childhood principals, administrators, and
teachers
•
As society expects more from early childhood education, and families
are seeking high quality early education experiences for their
children that are based on current research, the field is focusing on
quality improvement (teacher effectiveness and child learning)
•
Quality improvement [that focuses on teacher effectiveness and
impacts to children’s learning] can help make a stronger connection
between early childhood experiences and later school success

CONTENT THEY TEACH, Element III A:
Teachers align instruction with Foundations Early Learning Standards
and/or Kindergarten Standard Course of Study (KSCOS)
