Ohio Early Learning and Development Standards
http://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Early-Learning/Early-Learning-Content-Standards/Birth-Through-Pre_K-Learning-and-Development-Stand
These Birth Through Kindergarten Entry Learning and Development Standards describe key concepts and skills that young children develop during the birth-to-five-year period.
Their purpose is to support the development and well-being of young children and to foster their learning.
The standards promote the understanding of early learning and development, provide a comprehensive and coherent set of early childhood educational expectations for children’s development and learning, and guide the design and implementation of curriculum, assessment and instructional practices with young children.

Homeroom App
Each class will have access to a private app/website. I've created a classroom album called “Ms. Marla’s AM Preschool Class (22-23)” and "Ms. Marla's PM Class (22-23)" where I'll be posting photos, videos and more. You will be invited through an individual email at the beginning of the school year with the link to join.
