SCHOOL READINESS EVALUATION
1. Preface for parents/teachers
The purpose of this evaluation is to ascertain by means of exploration,observation and examination if a learner is less mature or less ready for school
than others.
Before evaluation commences, one has to ascertain whether the learner suffersfrom some physical disability or other in regard to hearing, eyesight,concentration, etc. If problems occur, it must be rectified before evaluationcommences.
The evaluation must take place over a period of a few days in an atmosphere ofrestfulness and stability, prefarably in the morning.
The first part of this evaluation namely
5.1 General development5.2 Emotional development and5.3 Social development
must be completed by somebody who is familiar with the learner, preferably aparent. Test results must be carried forward onto the evaluation sheet so thata true reflection of the learner's school readiness is visible.

2. Help with evaluation
2.1 BalanceThe walking beam
Length: 3 metresWidth: 100mm
Thickness: 50mmTwo supports for the beam.
Place the beam on the supports so that the child can walk on the 100mmsurface. When the child becomes more adept at it, the beam can beplaced on its side so that he can walk on the 50mm surface. If the childis afraid to walk on the beam, it can be placed on the floor until he getsmore used to it.
2.2.1 Pencil grip It is important for a child to have the correct pencil grip. Young learnersuse thick wax crayons or thick pencils. Short pencils must not be used.It forces the learner to hold the pencil too firmly which results in smalland shaky writing. This causes unnecessary pressure on the paperwhich causes fatigue. The pencil must be held above the sharpened partbetween the thumb and the middle finger, with the index finger lightly onthe pencil. If a learner has difficulty with the pencil grip, small pieces ofplaster can be pasted onto the finger to help with the position of thepencil. The learner must be able to lift the index finger without changingthe position of the pencil.

2.2.2 Position of the paperThe height of the table is important. The paper must be placed with anangle of 60 degrees to the left (for the righthanded learner).
2.2.3 PostureThe learner must sit up straight with both feet on the ground, shoulderseven and the same distance from the table. The left fore-arm must reston the writing surface and the left hand must hold the paper firmly sothat it cannot move. An unnatural position like e.g. the head too near the
writing surface needs further investigation e.g. an eye test.
2.3 DominanceDominance is the preference and use of one side of the body above theother.
When a learner has mixed or cross dominance, he often also has a learningproblem. Mixed or cross dominance is when a learner:
• is right-handed and (left-eyed)
• left-footed and (right-eyed)• (left-eyed) and right-footed, etc
It sometimes happens that a learner can write equally well with both hands, aswell as execute other tasks. We say then the learner is ambidextrous. Thiscan apply to a learner’s feet too. He will be able to kick a ball quite easily witheither the left or right foot.
It is very dangerous to force a learner to write with a specific hand or to kickwith a specific foot. As the learner grows he will decide himself which is hisdominant hand or foot and then use it.

2.4 Synthesis / puzzlesThese puzzles must be prepared by the examiner before evaluation takesplace. Colour the puzzle and paste onto a carton. Now make a colouredcopy of the puzzle. Cut the pasted puzzle out and place in a container.When evaluation takes place, the coloured copy of the puzzle must beplaced in front of the learner when he is building the puzzle.

3. What is school readiness?School maturity and school readiness are two related, but differentconcepts. Sometimes they are used as if they were synonymous, whichcan cause a great deal of confusion.
3.1 School maturitySchool maturity is a term which is generally used. It denotes a biological
growing process in the child's development when certain aptitudesappear before he starts school. This implies physical as well as mentalmaturity.
This is a biological process and cannot be hastened. Maturation is thename given to the stage when the child is ready for formal instruction inreading, writing and numeracy.
Usually this kind of maturity is reached by children at about the age ofsix. But it must be added that, from a pedagogical point of view, thiskind of maturity is not a guarantee of success at school, because even ifa child is sufficiently mature one can still find that he will not be able to
adjust to the demands of formal teaching. This means that the child isnot yet ready for school even if he is intellectually mature enough toattend school. If the child does not feel secure, there is a strongpossibility that he will not be able, in spite of his having attained therequired level of maturity, to realize his potential. This is why we mustinclude the concept of school readiness.
3.2 School readinessSchool readiness is a broad term which includes intellectual, social, andemotional maturity:
• School maturity
• Social maturity
• Emotional maturity
Maturity cannot be influenced by outside factors; but school readinesscan be encouraged by extending a child's field of experience and byteaching him to use his senses as effectively as possible.
"Readiness is a stage in a child's development when he can learn easily,effectively and without emotional disturbance. It cannot be a definitepoint in development, however, because growth is a steady continuousprocess, always ongoing. Rather it is a condition, or state, indicatingthat the child is ready to learn."
In order to assess readiness, one must have an insight into the child'slife as a whole. No child becomes ready for school on his own. It is aprocess that needs encouragement. The child needs to be educated forschool readiness. Initially it is the responsibility of the parent to providethe necessary stimuli, and these should be adapted to suit the individualchild. No two children have exactly the same kind of skills, talents,intelligence, or develop in exactly the same way. And not all children areequally ready for school at the time of their first going to school. School

readiness is the deciding factor and is primarily an educational matter.Home education, for example, plays a very important part in a child'sdevelopment towards school readiness.

4. Requirements for school readiness
Before a child is ready for school he must posses the following:
4.1 Perceptual ability which enables him to interpret in a meaningfulmanner. He must be able to distinguish between* foreground and background
* perceive constancy of form, colour, size, etc., and he must havea concept of spacial relationships and
* position in space.
The child must also be able to perceive and reproduce correctlyon a visual-motor level. In other words, the child must be able toperceptualize as well as conceptualize. These perceptual abilitiesare extremely important. Visual perception is particularlyimportant in writing, reading, copying, cutting out, pasting, etc.Auditory perception is important in listening: a child must notonly be able to hear, but also to listen.
4.2 The child should be emotionally prepared to enter the new world
and conquer it.4.3 The child should be able to adjust socially to new situations,classes, pupils, toys, teachers, etc. He must also resign himself toauthority and discipline.
4.4 The child must be able to absorb knowledge, elaborate on it, makeit his own, and reproduce it.
4.5 The child must be able to cope with, and evaluate problemsituations.
4.6 The child must be able to concentrate and persevere.4.7 The child must be able to grasp situations as a whole and see their
relation to given material, in other words what he has learnt mustmake an impression on him.
4.8 The child must be able to absorb knowledge not because ofpressure from outside, but because of an urge to learn. He musthave a purpose and there must be an inner motivation.
4.9 The child must be bodily fit enough to sustain progress. He mustbe able to see, to hear, and be physically strong enough to learn.
4.10 The child must have the ability to speak, to understand thelanguage and be able to express himself. He has to be verballyprepared. Language development must take place.
