The ECERS -- R has been expanded to 43 items and includes many improvements that will make this widely used resource even more valuable to early educators. Examples of new items include: Interaction items, such as staff-child interactions, interactions among children, and discipline -- Curriculum items, such as nature/science and math/number -- Health and Safety items -- More inclusive and culturally sensitive indicators for many items -- More items focusing on staff needs -- and much more. The scale is conveniently organized under seven categories: Space and Furnishings, Personal Care Routines, Language-Reasoning, Activities, Interactions, Program Structure, Parents and Staff.
