Question

During the past decade, states have moved forward with initiatives to strengthen early childhood programming and emphasize greater accountability for child outcomes. One of those efforts has been the development of Early Learning Guidelines (ELG) for children from birth to kindergarten that cover a range of domains across physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development, are incorporated into other parts of the childcare system, and align with the standards for other sectors such as Head Start.

For this assignment, you must research your state's website and write a paper about your state's Early Learning Guidelines in California. Include all the following:

1. the website link to your state's Early Learning Guidelines

2. summary in your own words of the history of your state's standards

3. age groups covered

4. names of each Domain (each broad area of learning, i.e., Math, Literacy, or Physical Development.)

5. accommodations for students who are English Language Learners

6. accommodations for children with disabilities or developmental delays, and

7. at least one Standard written out as it appears on the website.
