Should the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards be used as a screening tool when making program entry or exit decisions about individual children?
No. The Standards identify a range of appropriate expectations for children birth to first grade but recognize the wide variability in development between children that is typical during the early childhood years. Decisions regarding individual children should take into account the multiple factors influencing the childs development and be based upon information collected through multiple tools and methodologies.
