Curriculum Standards

I have received some questions concerning Curriculum Standards. Curriculum Standards are to be used as a guide. They are set up for classroom education purposes and are by no means the rule. Some children will excel in some areas while having difficulty in other areas, thus the blessing of Home Education. In a home school setting you are able to meet the needs of your child whereas in a classroom environment they may be unchallenged or left behind. Don't allow the standards to be a matter of stress. Use them as a guide. The end product is the most important thing.
For those who are interested in checking out the Curriculum Standards for Pre-k through 12th grade you may go the the following website published by World Book. (Of course, these are US standards.)
