Big 5 Screening
Routine-based baseline screening used to identify early strengths and instructional needs.
This guided checklist helps you observe and document the early literacy, language, and executive functioning behaviors of Spanish-dominant Dual Language Learners (DLLs) during everyday classroom routines. It is not a test — you are simply noting what the child already does naturally.
⏱ Remember: Observe over 3–5 days during arrival, meals, circle time, play, and transitions. No pull-out needed.
