How does the Core Knowledge Preschool Sequence correlate with my own states preschool standards?
At the time that the Preschool Sequence was first written, very few states had developed any standards for preschool. Some states have since begun to identify early childhood standards. A comparison of these state standards with the Preschool Sequence reveals that the goals and objectives of the Preschool Sequence are generally more comprehensive and specific than the state standards. We have completed correlations of the Preschool Sequence with the standards from a number of states; please contact the Core Knowledge Foundation for further information.
