GDO-R (2.5-9yrs)

The Gesell Developmental Observation-Revised (GDO-R) is a comprehensive multi-dimensional assessment system that assists educators, and other professionals in understanding characteristics of child behavior in relation to typical growth patterns between 2½ to 9 years of age.

The GDO-R uses direct observation to evaluate a child’s cognitive, language, motor and social-emotional responses in five strands (components): Developmental, Letter/Numbers, Language/Comprehension, Visual/Spatial and Social/Emotional/Adaptive.
