Missouri Early Learning Standards

Location: Missouri, US

Authors: Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

The Missouri Early Learning Standards were created to cover a broad spectrum of education. The guide has created developmentally appropriate learning, focusing on literacy, math, physical development, health and safety, science and social and emotional standards. The standards have been created through extensive research about children and development. The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education emphasis that each child is unique in their development, and therefore the standards are a guide, and not a strict curriculum. The information obtained by the teachers through their observation can be analysed to customize and engage teaching to the individual needs of children.
