What kind of preschool settings can use the Core Knowledge Preschool Sequence? What about half day programs?
The Core Knowledge Preschool Sequence may be used to guide the planning and provision of experiences and activities for young children in a variety of settings, including public and private preschool or pre-kindergarten programs, center- or home-based day care programs, Head Start, etc. The single most important factor to consider in deciding whether or not to implement the Preschool Sequence is whether there is a commitment by those who will use and oversee the program to study, support, and integrate it fully into the daily classroom activities. In many instances, this requires a long-term commitment of 2-3 years before the program is fully implemented.
