Missouri Learning, Engagement, and Preparation (MO LEAP) Blocks
High-quality instructional materials to support implementation of the Missouri Learning Standards.
Mission of MO LEAP Blocks
Provide opportunities for students to 1) demonstrate cognitive skills through acquisition; 2) engage in meaningful activities, investigations, or phenomena; 3) make connections to individual interests and identities; 4) choose how they engage with and demonstrate their learning, and; 5) reflect on content and their own learning processes.
Note: The materials found on this page are living documents. As educators use the curricular supports with their students, we welcome feedback and may revise materials periodically. The most current versions are found on this page.
