    Good Morning,
    I was wondering if anyone has used Creative Curriculum program about the first 30 or 45 days of school, that is supposed to be geared more towards routines, SEL learning similar to the responsive classroom approach? We are looking to use it here this upcoming school year.  Thanks for your responses.

    Hello,
    I use Creative Curriculum in my program. I'm a prek teacher. I use this curriculum all year. Im currently finishing up the ball study. Creative Curriculum is great for the beginning of the year because it introduces the classroom ,centers, Social emotional etc. I hope this helps.

    We make use of the Creative Curriculum in our Early Childhood Program. One of the studies is titled "Beginning the Year."
    This approx. 6-week study is used at the beginning of a school year and gives the teacher the opportunity to integrate his/her specific classroom routines/procedures into the day.

    Hello Sara,
    I am not well versed in the use of Creative Curriculum. How much flexibility do teachers have with individualizing this curriculum to meet the unique interests and needs of the children they work with each year?
