Rationale
How a society cares for and educates its children clearly reflects the worldview and core beliefs of any people. Therefore, it is imperative to look at all programs and practices through the lens of a Judeo-Christian view that clearly sees children as individuals created in the image of God. A major responsibility of the preschool teacher and/or administrator is to develop curriculum that simultaneously meets the mission and goals of an organization and the children’s physical, cognitive, emotional, developmental, and spiritual needs. The ability to evaluate and differentiate among various theories and practices is an essential component to experiencing success in early childhood education.
