What is Literacy: The Creative Curriculum Approach? (Creative)

The Creative Curriculum Approach is a supplement to Creative Curriculum for Preschool. This article discusses how the literacy approach is aligned with current reading research and addresses its strengths and weaknesses. The focus of this new volume is on helping early childhood educators develop a better understanding of the key components of a comprehensive literacy program, the research behind each component, and the instructional role of the teacher. Literacy: The Creative Curriculum Approach builds on the “whole child” philosophy of The Creative Curriculum by describing how literacy activities, related research, and teacher’s role support the child’s early literacy and language development.
