We want your comments! Correlation of HS Framework & Common Core for K

Review the Correlation of the Head Start Framework with the Common Core State Standards in Kindergarten. The deadline for Review and comment is Nov. 20, 2011 so as not to get lost in the holiday time frame. We hope this project can spark more dialogues between NHSA, NAEYC, SFL, the early education community and K-3 and produce some positive results.

As the majority of states have already adopted the Common Core State Standards and the Head Start Framework is used nationally, this presents a good opportunity for the entire early childhood community to discuss the wealth of learning experiences and school readiness skills that PreK children in high quality, DAP programs–in this case Head Start “graduates”—bring onto the Kindergarten classroom.
