Idaho Programs Carry a Lot. Lesson Planning Can Be Lighter

Idaho daycare staff complete required training every year, ICCP providers add 12 hours in RISE, and Quality Achievers now asks programs to show growth in areas like environments, curriculum and instruction. Idaho also has no state-funded preschool program, so community programs carry most of the early learning load. A curriculum already mapped to the eGuidelines gives directors one less thing to build from scratch.

Included With LBP for Idaho Programs

Learning Beyond Paper is the only all-in-one cloud-based early childhood curriculum with a virtual instructional coach. Idaho programs get 52 weeks of lessons in five age bands, more than 4,000 activities in English and Spanish, family engagement tools, an observational assessment tool and 49.5 on-demand training hours in LBP University, with every band mapped to the Idaho Early Learning eGuidelines.

Idaho eGuidelines Crosswalks for Every Age Band

The Idaho Early Learning eGuidelines cover areas such as approaches to learning and cognitive development, social-emotional development, physical wellbeing and communication, language and literacy. LBP's Idaho crosswalks map infant, young toddler, older toddler and 3- to 5-year-old lessons to the eGuidelines goals for each age range, so you can trace any activity back to what it supports.

ELBY, a Virtual Instructional Coach for Idaho Teachers

Inside each lesson, ELBY gives Idaho teachers coaching they can use on the spot: how to simplify the activity for a child who needs help, how to extend it for a child who is ready, and what to look for while children work.

LBP University: 49.5 Hours, No Extra Cost

Four Ways LBP Helps Idaho Directors

Idaho directors balance licensing, ICCP certification, Quality Achievers goals and a growing number of Spanish-speaking families. These are the four areas where LBP saves the most time.

A head start on Quality Achievers

Quality Achievers recognizes Growing Star and Star Achiever programs, and one Achievement area is Environments, Curriculum and Instruction. LBP gives you eGuidelines-mapped lessons, an observational assessment tool and teaching records that show your curriculum practice to an IdahoSTARS coach.

Coaching between training hours

Idaho daycare center employees complete ongoing training every year, and ICCP providers take 12 hours annually in RISE. ELBY's coaching inside each lesson helps staff turn that training into everyday practice.

Spanish for Idaho families

Spanish is by far the most common language other than English in Idaho homes, spoken by about 156,700 residents age 5 and older. Every LBP activity and family resource comes in English and Spanish, so teachers can share each week's learning with families in the language they use.

One price covers the whole program

One yearly subscription gives every Idaho classroom access, infants through pre-K. No per-teacher fees, no per-room fees and no second curriculum for older or younger children.

Starting LBP in Your Idaho Program

Four steps move an Idaho program from a free trial to eGuidelines-mapped lessons in every classroom.

On a phone, tablet or laptop, a teacher finds this week's plan, gathers the listed materials, reads ELBY's suggestion and begins, at the block area or out on the playground.

Activities map to the eGuidelines
Each activity shows the Idaho Early Learning eGuidelines goal it supports for that age band. Week by week you build a record of planned learning and observations to share with families, your IdahoSTARS coach or a licensing visitor.

One yearly subscription opens every classroom in your Idaho center. If you run more than one location, we can help you plan the rollout.

A Dependable Curriculum for Idaho's Child Care System

In Idaho, community child care programs do much of the state’s early learning work: NIEER’s 2025 yearbook reports that Idaho does not have a state-funded preschool program, while a federal PDG B-5 award of about $10.6 million supports system building. IdahoSTARS, run by the University of Idaho’s Center on Disabilities and Human Development under a $14.6 million contract with the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, supports licensing, ICCP participation, professional development and Quality Achievers, the state’s new quality recognition system. Learning Beyond Paper fits that picture with eGuidelines-mapped lessons for every age, observation tools and records in one place, at a price a single center can manage.

Idaho Directors' Most Common Questions

Answers on the Idaho eGuidelines, Quality Achievers, ICCP, RISE training, Spanish materials and cost.

Yes. LBP publishes Idaho crosswalks for all four of its age bands (0 to 12 months, 13 to 24 months, 25 to 36 months and 3 to 5 years), each mapped to the Idaho Early Learning eGuidelines shared by the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare. Lessons from infancy through pre-K also align to the Head Start ELOF. Every crosswalk is on our curriculum alignments page.

Quality Achievers is Idaho’s new Quality Recognition and Improvement System, run by IdahoSTARS. Licensed programs with ICCP certification and a RISE account can be recognized as a Growing Star or a Star Achiever, choosing from seven Achievement areas including Environments, Curriculum and Instruction and the Pyramid Model. LBP supplies eGuidelines-mapped lessons and observation tools for that work, though recognition depends on your whole program, not the curriculum alone.

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare issues daycare licenses, and IdahoSTARS helps providers through the licensing steps. LBP gives every classroom a written weekly plan for its age group and a record of completed activities, so you can show a licensing visitor how learning is planned for infants, toddlers and preschoolers alike. It sits alongside your health, safety and staffing practices.

Yes. The Idaho Child Care Program helps low-income families pay for care through tuition assistance from the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, and participating providers complete state licensing requirements and annual training. LBP gives ICCP and private-pay children in the same room one shared curriculum, observation tools and English and Spanish family materials, so planning stays simple for the whole program.

We do not claim they do. Idaho law requires each daycare center employee to complete four hours of ongoing child development training every 12 months, and ICCP requires 12 hours a year, with the required courses taken in RISE. LBP University’s 49.5 hours of professional learning are included and build curriculum skills, but check with IdahoSTARS before counting any of them.

Yes. Because Idaho does not fund a statewide preschool program, most preschoolers learn in community child care, private preschool or Head Start. LBP’s preschool and pre-K bands give those classrooms a full year of eGuidelines-mapped lessons, with Teaching Strategies GOLD® objectives and CLASS® keys on each activity and an observational assessment tool to track progress before kindergarten.

One yearly subscription gives your Idaho program school-wide access. Every classroom from infants to pre-K is included, along with ELBY, LBP University, the observational assessment tool, English and Spanish content and the Idaho crosswalks. There are no per-teacher or per-classroom fees, and LBP offers grant-writing support for customers.

Yes, at no extra cost. About 215,400 Idahoans age 5 and older speak a language other than English at home, and roughly 73% of them speak Spanish. Every LBP activity and family engagement resource is available in English and Spanish, so teachers can send home the week’s learning in the language a family uses and keep parents involved.

Begin a 30-day free trial. Every classroom and age band in your Idaho program is open from the first day, so you can test the eGuidelines-mapped plans in the infant room and the pre-K room together. Prefer a walkthrough first? Book a demo and our team will show you around.

Yes. Licensed home-based providers in Idaho can join Quality Achievers and ICCP just like centers, and they often care for several ages at once. LBP’s five age bands let one provider plan for babies, toddlers and preschoolers from a single login, with Spanish and English family materials included. Our family child care page explains mixed-age planning.
