This full day of training provides an opportunity for staff to reflect on the status of curriculum in their programs. It begins with what research tells us about learning in these years, looks at the role of tradition, the movement towards standards for early childhood curriculum, the effect of time and money constraints, and the role of engagement in learning experiences. Staff will learn what thematic units or projects enhance conceptual learning and school achievement. Participants complete a self-assessment of engaged learning in their classroom.
