It gives us great pleasure to introduce you to The Creative Curriculum for Preschool, our award-winning research-based curriculum. The Creative Curriculum for Preschool features exploration and discovery as a way of learning, enabling children to develop confidence, creativity, and critical thinking skills. The Creative Curriculum for Preschool is based on 38 objectives for development and learning. These objectives are fully aligned with the Head Start Child Development and Early Learning Framework and state early learning standards, and integrated into each and every one of the comprehensive collection of resources that makes up the curriculum. Educators can be confident that they are meeting important early learning standards every day, even while bringing their own creativity and expertise into daily planning. What’s more, the curriculum also offers daily opportunities to individualize instruction by helping teachers meet the needs of every learner, with a particular focus on English language development. As many of you may know, The Creative Curriculum has a long, rich history, and has always offered teachers valuable insight into the most current research and best practices for early childhood education. But it hasn’t always offered the daily support that many teachers need to organize and manage their days intentionally and effectively. Over the years, we’ve recognized that most teachers have limited time to plan the range of experiences that make their classrooms the positive and exciting environments that all children deserve. That’s why our newest curriculum solution is one that combines The Foundation, five comprehensive knowledge-building volumes, with the Daily Resources, which offer detailed daily guidance for every day of the year. It helps ensure that all teachers have the tools they need to be successful, right from the very first days of school. At Teaching Strategies, we understand why you entered the early childhood profession: to help children succeed, both in school and in life. We share that vision and hope you enjoy this “insider’s look” at The Creative Curriculum, our complete solution for effective teaching and successful learning.
