How do Mother Goose Programs™ tie into guidelines from the National Association for the Education of Young Children?
The philosophy of and content contained in the Mother Goose Programs for professionals working with children ages birth to 7 are aligned with those of NAEYC. Books, articles and on-line materials written and published by NAEYC have been used during the creation and dissemination of the MGP curricula. The courses and workshops based on these Mother Goose Programs are used for recertification credit in several states. The emphasis on teacher commitment to children and their learning, teachers knowing the subjects they teach and how to teach those subjects to children, teachers learning to think systematically about their practice and learning from experience and as members of a learning community are all essential elements of MGP trainings and curricula.
