Answer 1

If you have access to an iep (individual education plan) you can see various tasks.  For instance take writing:  first you have to hold the pencil, then making random marks, then a line, then a circle, then recognizable shapes, letters and pictures (scissors same thing hold  them, random straight cuts, cut a circle then shapes). By having a pre-school childs progress you know where the child is at and how to base your lesson plans to keep building on the skills they have but not jumping from holding a pencil (new skill) to drawing a school (advanced skill) without providing the steps in between.  Children do well when they build on successes, children discouraged when the repeatedly fail tasks.  As educator giving the children the processes/steps that encourage learning are the biggest signs of success.  Good luck.
