“Research shows that all children can benefit from participating in
high-quality preschool programs.”
Jack O’ConnellA Message from the State Superintendent of Public Instruction

Children who attend high-quality preschool programs:
• are more comfortable in their surroundings
• have been exposed to books
• have learned to play cooperatively
• are accustomed to learning with others

Key Findings of the Rand Study
• Children who attend pre-k score higher on school readiness measures at kindergarten entry.
• Effective pre-k improves children’s K-12 academic performance.
• Effective pre-k has long-term benefits.

With a goal of ensuring that all preschools offer high-quality programs, the California Department of Education developed these preschool learning foundations.
On January 22, 2008, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Jack O’Connell formally released the foundations during the California State of Education address.

The Foundations…
Describe the knowledge and skills that all young children typically exhibit:
• at around 48 and 60 months of age;
• as they complete their first or second year of preschool;
• with appropriate support; and
• when attending a high-quality preschool program.
![Page 16: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

High-Quality Programs Include
• environments and experiences that encourage active, playful exploration and experimentation
• purposeful teaching to help children gain knowledge and skills
• specific support for children learning English
• specific accommodations and adaptations for children with special needs

Introduction Highlights
• Foundations describe knowledge and skills that most children can be expected to exhibit in a high-quality program at the end of their first or second year of preschool.
• They focus on behaviors reflecting age-appropriate competencies for children at around 48 months and at around 60 months.
![Page 23: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

• Children are different and may not demonstrate the behaviors in the examples exactly as they are stated.
• When taking an in-depth look at a domain, one needs to keep in mind that, for young children, learning is a very integrated experience.

The purpose of the foundations is to promote understanding of preschool children’s learning and to guide instructional practice.

Children with Disabilities • Children with disabilities develop in ways that
are similar to, but different from typically developing children.
• Teachers provide the insight needed to understand how these foundations can be applied.
![Page 28: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Universal Design for Learning
• supports preschool programs in their efforts to foster learning and development for all children
• provides opportunities for children to follow different pathways to learning
• provides for the use of multiple approaches to learning
![Page 29: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Universal Design for Learning cont.
• provides information in a variety of ways so that the learning needs of all of the children are met
• allows for use of alternative methods to demonstrate what they know or feel
• provides choices for activities that facilitate learning by building on children’s interests
![Page 30: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

“How To’s” of Teaching Young Children
Effective teaching includes:• setting up environments;
• supporting children’s play;
• selecting appropriate materials; and
• planning and implementing teacher-guided
learning activities.
![Page 31: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Two Major Considerations Underlie the “How To’s” of Teaching
• Teachers can foster early learning by thoughtfully considering the foundations as they plan.
• Teachers can tap into the prominent role of play by encouraging the learning in child’s self- initiated play and introducing purposeful instructional activities that playfully engage preschoolers in learning.
![Page 32: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Preschool English-Language Development Foundations
• English-language development is not linked to age.
• English-learners’ language develops at different rates.
• Children may be at the beginning, middle or later levels for different foundations at the same point in time.

Treasure Hunt: Part 1
• As a table, create 5 questions that can be answered from the pages of your assigned domain. Write them neatly on the Question Sheet.
• Write answers to those questions on the Answer Key and seal it. Include page numbers where the answer can be found.
• You have 20 minutes to complete this part of the activity.
![Page 42: 1 California Preschool Learning Foundations California Department of Education Child Development Division.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551550ec550346a87d8b6586/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42
Treasure Hunt: Part 2
• Pass your Question Sheet and sealed Answer Key clockwise to the next table.
• You will now have a Question Sheet from another table. Check the top to see what domain you will be working in.
• Find and record the answers directly below each question.
• Open the Answer Key and check your answers.• You have 15 minutes for this work.

Strand - Substrand Order
• There is a developmental progression from three- to four-years-old within a substrand.
• The order in which the strands and substrands are presented is not meant to indicate a developmental progression.
