Parent Guides for English Language Arts

The B.E.S.T. Standards for English Language Arts (ELA) are literacy standards for Florida students that will shape their education and make Florida the most literate state in the nation. In addition, the Florida Early Learning and Developmental Standards reflect the knowledge and skills that children birth to age 5 should know and be able to do. Together, the B.E.S.T. and Florida Early Learning and Developmental Standards will pave the way for Florida students to receive a world-class education and prepare them for a successful future.
