The Massachusetts Pre-School and Kindergarten Standards in the Domains of Social-Emotional Development and Approaches to Play and Learning

February 25, 2016 By C Wakely

The state early childhood social emotional standards have arrived! One of the many interesting qualities of this resource is that it includes standards outlining the importance of play as well. The webpage devoted to the standards offers translations into Chinese, Haitian Creole, Portuguese and Spanish, and also includes a supplemental article on the importance of Building a Supportive Environment. Read more about it and view or download the Standards documents here.
