Learning Standards and Developmental Guidelines
Learning standards are clear, specific expectations that outline what children should know and be able to do at different ages and stages of development. Developmental guidelines provide a framework for understanding typical growth patterns in areas like cognitive, social, and emotional development. Together, these tools help educators and parents support children's learning by ensuring that educational activities are aligned with what is appropriate for their age and developmental level. This ensures that children build essential skills and knowledge in a way that nurtures their overall growth and readiness for future learning experiences.
