Abstract

The present paper focuses on the role of school assessment in early childhood education. It aims to discuss how children are assessed in relation to the means and criteria adopted regarding to language. The research was conducted in two early childhood education schools, one public and the other private, both located in the city of São Paulo. In both schools the instruments which involve the evaluation process, such as diagnostic activities and reports/records of school performance assessment were analyzed. The theoretical perspective is based on the Critical Theory of Society, giving special attention to the studies, which deal with formation, experience and language. In general, the conclusion of this research was that the relationship between assessment and early childhood education tends to express a standardized and pre-determined perspective of children development, rather than the possibility of experiences which aim at reflection and training.
