The Tulare County Office of Education’s Universal Transitional Kindergarten (UTK) program is offering a pair of trainings and its annual Re-imagining Early Learning conference this month.
On September 24 and again on October 29, the program will hold a training on Preschool/Transitional Kindergarten Learning Foundations (PTKLF). The PTKLF is commonly referred to as the California early learning “standards” for children in early education classrooms. Through the PTKLF training, attendees will discover the foundations for long-range learning and academic achievement in K-12. Attendees will also learn the guiding PTKLF principles and interrelated learning domains, including social emotional development and mathematics.
