The curriculum focuses on four major areas: social and emotional skills, physical growth, cognitive awareness, and language development. Each developmental area addresses several goals, including but not limited to, developing responsibility for self and others, strengthening gross and fine motor skills, increasing language and problem solving techniques, and improving reading and writing proficiency.
Within the classroom, teachers strive to create a positive learning environment for all children by assessing students on an individual basis. Based on the Creative Curriculum assessment tool, teachers are able to make necessary accommodations through small group activities and one-on-one instruction to assist children in reaching goals and developing new skills.
Creative Curriculum encourages children to explore the environment and learn from hands on experiences. Classroom teachers develop themes and projects based on the interest of the students to maximize the potential for growth and development.
