Teacher Observations & Planning Influence Daily Interactions
Teachers observe and interact with their classes, taking notes of where interest occurs. Then, teachers build on that interest with lessons that expand your child’s world. This fosters an early love of learning because the children have ownership over it.
The Creative Curriculum© Provides A Trusted Framework For Learning
The Creative Curriculum©’s framework has five components: how children develop and learn, the learning environment, what children learn, caring and teaching, and partnering with families.
The Creative Curriculum© Is Centered On 5 Fundamental Principles, Including:
Positive Interactions With Adults & Peers
Other children and adults directly impact your child's learning and teach them how to engage with respect and kindness.
Social-Emotional Development
This is the #1 skill required for future generations. Teach your child respect, communication, and collaboration now.
Constructive & Purposeful Play
Play with a purpose is learning. Each activity is set out to be multi-faceted, with a focus on language, math, and more.
The Learning Environment Itself
Classrooms are designed to invite children to learn, and yes, to play! Each station invites an opportunity for exploration.
Partnerships Between Teachers & Family
Improve your child's chances for school success. Forging a partnership with now will help your child thrive in lasting ways.
Subject Areas Prepare With Exceptional School Skills
Children learn in all areas: literacy, mathematics, science, social studies, the arts, and technology. Each content area breaks down into specifics, including objectives and strategies for teachers to accommodate children’s learning.
Nature Is Integral To Everyday Learning
The natural world provides open-ended explorations and activities throughout the day. Children learn through direct experimentation, using a variety of tools from the classroom and home to practice cause and effect, matching, sorting, classification, and more.
Yearly Assessments Measure Progress & Development
Assessments determine what children know and can do, and their strengths, needs, and interests. Assessments also monitor for development and areas that may require additional support. The assessment tool uses a 4-step process:
- observing & collecting facts
- analyzing & responding
- evaluating & summarizing
- planning & communicating
