Using the System: Teaching Strategies for Early Childhood

Teaching Strategies products and services are organized into four sections that reflect their intended uses.

• Teaching Strategies Curriculum resources help you plan and implement a developmentally appropriate, content-rich program that is tailored to your particular setting and the age group of the children you serve.
• Teaching Strategies Assessment resources help you observe the children in your program, assess all aspects of their development and learning, and plan responsively.
• Teaching Strategies Professional Development resources and services support capacity building as well as your staff's growth and development as early childhood education professionals.
• Teaching Strategies Family Connection resources help you support children's learning and development by strengthening family-school partnerships and family-child interactions.

We developed this organizational approach to help you understand how all of our materials fit together. By selecting resources from each of the four sections, you can build a comprehensive and fully integrated system for your program.
