[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our kids daycare used CC and it was implemented by teachers with years of experience with it. I liked that my kids learned letters through play and natural environment (doing the art, looking for A words on a walk etc.) as well as the themes: community helpers etc. We were very happy with it--both kids read before K, though that's not a goal per se of the curriculum. I'm not an expert, but it seems age appropriate and give lots of room for learning through play. I do remember at a parents meeting saying it is the curriculum used by Head Start and therefore one of the most researched and studied (and proven to be successful). [/quote] Similar experience here. The kids were all prepared for kindergarten, so that wasn't an issue (plenty of pre-literacy and pre-math skills incorporated into the lesson plan). It was age-appropriate and fun, and the teachers were good teachers so it was well-implemented. The "theme" format was nice, and the teachers did a good job of integrating stories, songs, art projects, neighborhood walks and field trips, science and cooking activities, etc., into the weekly theme.
