Abstract	This issue of the newsletter focuses on early intervention for handicapped preschool children. The lead article, entitled "Promoting Independent Work Skills in Handicapped Preschool Children," highlights findings of a project designed to identify critical skills needed for independent functioning in mainstream preschool and kindergarten environments, select target behaviors for intervention, and identify effective intervention procedures. Issues addressed include promoting independent work skills in the absence of the teacher, increasing responding during group instruction, facilitating transition times between activities, and promoting independent seatwork skills. Additional sections of the newsletter describe a published research study on preschool peer interactions, review four current publications in the area of early intervention and developmental problems, summarize the Carolina Curriculum for Handicapped Infants and Infants at Risk, and describe a norm-referenced skill assessment instrument for children ages 2 and 3. The newsletter also provides a courseware review and descriptions of adaptive devices, as well as a review of two videocassette programs, one on the analysis of movement patterns from birth to 12 months in a developmentally normal child, the second on Public Law 99-457, Education of the Handicapped Act Amendments 1986.
