For this project my classmates and I traveled to Wyoming to assist in kindergarten screening. We traveled to Wyoming for this project because these screening our mandated by their state unfortunately not here in the state of Utah. The purpose of these screening is to catch children who may have difficulties learning as they are coming in and give them intervention immediately if it is needed.

While we were there I had the opportunity to asses for both fine and gross motor skills. This is beneficial for much reason as we were able to see the screening process and had the opportunity to look at and compare kid at in various developmental stages. The assessments also allowed us to pin point what area a child was struggling with and come up with possibilities for further evaluations.
