A Curriculum for the Pre-school Child : Learning to Learn

Audrey Curtis lays down a curriculum framework for three to five-year old children, stressing the need for the pre-school curriculum to be based upon the experiences children bring from their homes and communities.

She considers the skills and competencies which should be fostered at this stage and discusses the ways in which the learning environment can be organised.

She also explores the influence of early educators on modern pre-school education and looks at the question of assessment and curriculum continuity.
