What Is Emergent Curriculum?

Emergent Curriculum begins with what children notice, wonder and investigate, rather than following a fixed sequence for every group.

01

Educators observe closely

Interests that appear in play can become invitations to build, draw, talk, count, read, move or investigate.

02

Learning areas connect

One question can support language, creativity, cooperation, physical skills and problem solving at the same time.
