Abstract	This study was conducted to determine the most common contemporary evaluation methods used by kindergarten teachers to assess kindergarten children. The study sample consisted of 527 kindergarten teachers. A scale was developed in order to achieve the study's purposes. The results indicated that the Teacher's Practices in the Evaluation Process (TPEP) had the highest mean score, and the Informal Evaluation Methods (IEM) had the lowest. The results revealed that there are statistically significant differences in the evaluation methods kindergarten teachers use in their classrooms according to their qualifications, their years of teaching experience and the interaction between these two variables. The study recommends training courses for kindergarten teachers to raise their competencies in the field of evaluation, in order to change the methods of evaluation used and avoid the errors of traditional evaluation methods.
