About the Provider

Description: This curriculum guide is intended to give parents a better understanding of our pre-k program at IED by explaining some of the ideas on which the program’s philosophy is based, as well as some of the practical ways in which they are applied in the IED program.

We use developmentally appropriate practice, a theoretical concept in early childhood education, as an overall guide to curriculum development.

We organize our curriculum around themes chosen with children’s interests in mind. A unit may be designed later in the year based on responses or questions that arose in an earlier unit. We use themes to explore the world with activities that emphasize hands-on, sensory experiences and integrated learning.

The first section of this guide will explain in brief some of the basic principles of developmentally appropriate practice. If you are interested in reading more about developmentally appropriate practice, a good place to start is the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) web site: www.naeyc.org.

According to the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), studies show that children who experience developmentally appropriate teaching practices in preschool and kindergarten do better in elementary school. Some research indicates that developmentally appropriate practice in early childhood education can lead to higher achievement throughout life.

One of the advantages of developmentally appropriate practice is that it is intended to be adapted to the particular needs and goals of the early childhood education program using it.
