Our Curriculum

The Synergistic Approach of Teaching Strategies Gold and Creative Curriculum

Helping Hands Family Childcare has decided to complement its use of Teaching Strategies Gold with Creative Curriculum based on research conducted by Teaching Strategies that compared child outcomes between the two curricula. The study found that children taught using the Creative Curriculum had higher levels of school readiness and improved social-emotional development.

Additionally, the Research Foundation for Creative Curriculum provided further evidence of the effectiveness of the curriculum. The foundation emphasizes the importance of providing a developmentally appropriate curriculum based on research and aligned with early learning standards. Creative Curriculum meets these criteria, providing a comprehensive approach to early childhood education that focuses on the whole child in all areas of development.

By incorporating the Creative Curriculum into our teaching practices, Helping Hands Family Childcare hopes to provide our students with a well-rounded education that prepares them for success in school and beyond. The curriculum’s emphasis on play-based learning and hands-on activities aligns with Helping Hands’ philosophy of providing young children with a nurturing and engaging learning environment. Helping Hands looks forward to seeing its positive impact on its students’ growth and development.
