Standards Start at Home

Many parents wonder what they can do to ensure that their preschooler will be successful when he or she enters school, especially now with so much emphasis on state testing and learning standards. Through play and everyday activities like cooking, cleaning, and grocery shopping, your young child is acquiring the information and skills needed to learn more difficult skills, including how to read, write, and solve problems. This guide is meant to help you understand that the lessons necessary to meet state learning standards begin in the home with your child’s first and most influential teacher – YOU!
