Curriculum
In the preschool classroom, the learning environment is the curriculum foundation. Classrooms are divided into well-defined learning areas that encourage exploration, work, and active learning through individual, small-group, and large-group activities. Learning centers include dramatic play, art, music, creative expression, construction, science, reading/language, writing/literacy and sensory exploration. Children are a part of the planning process, making suggestions for themes and topics to investigate.
