Abstract
Only recently has there been a set of practices that represents consensus of professionals and consumers in the field of early childhood special education and early intervention relative to useful practices. In this article, practices identified through the work of the Division for Early Childhood (DEC) Task Force on Recommended Practices are compared with practices identified through the work of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). This comparison of accepted practice identified by DEC and NAEYC points out both similarities and differing emphases that exist in the areas of inclusion, family involvement, assessment, program planning, curriculum and intervention strategies, service delivery models, and transition.Keywords
