This report serves as a guide for **Head Start** programs to assist them in selecting a social emotional curriculum for their classrooms. Seven different evidence-based programs were presented and evaluated against NCQTL’s twelve components of an effective social-emotional preschool curriculum. The **[Incredible Years® Classroom Dinosaur Curriculum](https://incredibleyears.com/programs/child/classroom-curriculum/)** is among the programs reviewed in the report, which highlights the positive impact of implementing IY in a classroom setting!

The twelve components used to evaluate each program are thoroughly explained in the full report, [which can be found here](http://eclkc.ohs.acf.hhs.gov/hslc/tta-system/teaching/practice/curricula/research.html). Each program is ranked on a scale of “No Evidence,” “Minimal Evidence,” “Some Evidence,” and “Solid, High-Quality Evidence” for each component.

Incredible Years Classroom Dinosaur School was found to have “Some Evidence” or “Solid, High-Quality Evidence” for **nearly all of the twelve components!** The program ranked particularly high in areas of *comprehensiveness*, *depth for covered social, emotional and learning elements*, *well-designed learning activities*, *responsive teaching*, and *family involvement materials*. [Download a PDF of the entire Incredible Years report here](https://incredibleyears.com/news/incredible-years-featured-in-2015-preschool-curriculum-consumer-report/), or [access the full downloadable report online](http://eclkc.ohs.acf.hhs.gov/hslc/tta-system/teaching/practice/curricula/research.html) to learn more about the programs evaluated and how Incredible Years can be used to teach social, emotional, and academic skills in a classroom setting.
