As a result, expose and analyze some of the aspects and concepts of learning evaluation, we discuss the evaluation in kindergarten and finalized with the newly external evaluation for this stage of basic education. We conclude that there must be many discussions on the subject to better understand it and that both the assessment in kindergarten as the evaluation of early childhood education, here been translated into external evaluation, it is important and necessary, so that from them the teacher has subsidies for planning and (re)plan their teaching and for the realization of an effective practice that meets the needs of children.
