			<p>The Ounce Scale comprises three core components:<br />
			&nbsp;<br />
			<strong>The Observation Record</strong> provides a focus for observing and documenting children&rsquo;s everyday behaviours and provides data for making evaluations.&nbsp;<br />
			&nbsp;<br />
			<strong>The Family Album</strong> offers a structure for parents to learn about and record their child&rsquo;s development.<br />
			&nbsp;<br />
			<strong>The Developmental Profile</strong> enables caregivers and other staff to evaluate each child&rsquo;s development and progress over time, comparing their observations.</p>

			<h4>Benefits</h4>

			<ul>
				<li>Presents a highly reliable, criterion-referenced measure based on specific developmental standards.</li>
				<li>Helps meet Early Head Start and federal assessment requirements.</li>
				<li>Allows you to gather information from multiple perspectives, giving a more well-rounded picture of the child&rsquo;s development.</li>
				<li>Takes a natural, whole-child approach to observation.</li>
				<li>Helps educate parents so that they can become more involved in decisions about their children.</li>
				<li>Supports early intervention for at-risk kids.</li>
			</ul>

			<h3>Features</h3>

			<p>Designed for use with infants and toddlers, The Ounce Scale is organized around six major developmental areas:</p>

			<ul>
				<li><strong>Personal connections:</strong> How children show they trust you.</li>
				<li><strong>Feelings about self:</strong> How children express who they are.</li>
				<li><strong>Relationships with other children</strong>: What children do around other children.</li>
				<li><strong>Understanding and communicating: </strong>How children understand and communicate.</li>
				<li><strong>Exploration and problem solving</strong>: How children explore and figure things out.</li>
				<li><strong>Movement and coordination:</strong> How children move their bodies and use their hands to do things.</li>
			</ul>
