"Children and teachers working together to create curriculum that inspires"
Why adopt ACCESS? The ACCESS Curriculum (ACCESS) was developed in part to fill the need to be intentional about how we, as early childhood educators, provide access to quality, developmentally appropriate learning experiences for all young children. ACCESS is a curriculum that includes a framework for intentional decision-making about what to teach and how to teach it. It was developed and implemented at the University of Dayton (UD)'s Bombeck Family Learning Center (Bombeck Center) and with our field partners in other preschool, kindergarten and primary grade settings. The curriculum reflects 20 years of work by UD early childhood faculty and Bombeck Center teachers and administrators who developed, field tested, implemented and refined the curriculum. |
