Children who are beginning to walk have an endearing physique, with the belly sticking forward and the back curved. They may also appear to be quite bow-legged. By 3 years of age, muscle tone increases and the proportion of body fat decreases, so the body begins to look leaner and more muscular.

products articles Educational Programs Head Start programs, child care centers, home-based child care programs, intergenerational programs, and programs for children with special needs. Originally designed for low-income, "at-risk" children, the High/Scope® approach is now used for the full range of children and has been successfully implemented in both urban and rural settings both in the U.S. and around the world. As more and more states and local school districts move toward universal or targeted pre-kindergarten programs, they must consider which curriculum model to adopt, how to train staff, and how to measure the program's quality and effectiveness. High/Scope's child development orientation makes it highly compatible with various state standards for early childhood learning and with Head Start outcomes.

Fu Last month's article: Center Time in the Early Childhood Classroom: Basic Set-up For more Issues articles visit: The Issues Article Archive What is a preschool learning environment? What should children learn? What should children be taught in a curriculum? Early Literacy ... Mathematics and Science To take children seriously is to value them for who they are right now rather than seeing them as adults-in-the-making. Thus, what we ask them to do should have "horizontal relevance," . . . It ought to be "meaningful to them at the time" for example, related to something that could happen on the way home from school. Mere "vertical relevance" isn't enough: there's a reason to be concerned if the only justification for learning something is that students will need to know it later for example, as part of the following year's curriculum. -Alfie Kohn (1999) The Schools Our Children Deserve I hope you will reflect on the above quote when you teach in the preschool classroom. The big question many parents, teachers and other educators often ask is "How can we prepare children for kindergarten?" The question is in itself problematic because it implies that children have to be prepared for kindergarten. It also so implies that children need to be ready for kindergarten while ignoring what we know about children's development, how they learn, and that they are "eager to learn" long before preschool. The big questions should be related to the here and now:

District Preschool Locations Program Description Poway Unified School District preschools have used Scholastic’s Early Childhood Program curriculum since 1997. The central goal of the program is to help guarantee that young children will develop the necessary skills, knowledge, and life habits to become successful learners, especially in their language and literacy development. The program is designed to ensure that children's language and early reading skills will develop in accordance with the four critical areas outlined by the Early Reading First legislation: oral language, phonological awareness, print awareness, and alphabetic knowledge. The curriculum emphasizes language development and early literacy integrated in the following areas: mathematics, science, social studies, the arts, and physical, personal and social development. The preschool program supports children's development of knowledge, skills, and processes that will help them make sense of themselves and the world around them. It provides young children with informed instruction that supports them as they actively investigate novel concepts, skills, and processes and reexamine known ones.
