Approaches to Learning

Approaches to Learning is one of the five central domains of the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework (ELOF). It focuses on how children learn. These resources explore how children acquire the skills and behaviors they use to engage in learning, such as self-regulation, initiative, curiosity, and creativity.

Other ELOF domains include Social and Emotional Development; Language and Literacy; Cognition; and Perceptual, Motor, and Physical Development.
