ECD 201 - Pre K Curriculum & Methods

Min Credits: 3

This course focuses on the role of the teacher in connecting content, teaching and learning for preschool children when building curriculum based on best practices. Ohio’s PreK Early Learning Standards will be used as students compare and contrast a variety of curriculum models. Students will apply understandings of how children learn to create healthy, respectful, supportive, and challenging learning environments for all children. Participation in a preschool classroom six hours each week will give students an opportunity to develop, implement and reflect on lesson plans that they selected and prepared to meet the needs of individual children and the group.
