Emergent Curriculum

Young children learn by doing, touching, experimenting, choosing, talking, and negotiating. Everything is potential curriculum for young children. Emergent curriculum is planning what happens in the classroom and the focus of learning through interaction between teachers and children, with both contributing ideas and reacting to them to build engaging and worthwhile units of study. The curriculum approach builds on interests that emerge from our daily lives with the children. The children provide the ideas that form a foundation for activities and units of study that are then prepared, organized, coordinated, and facilitated by the teachers.

Emergent curriculum describes curriculum that develops from exploring what is “socially relevant, intellectually engaging, and personally meaningful to children.  Emergent curriculum arises naturally from adult-child and child-child interactions that create “teachable moments. ” It connects learning with experience and prior learning. It responds to children’s immediate interests rather than focusing on a narrow, individual, or calendar driven topic. It is process rather than product driven. The curriculum is typically implemented after an idea emerges from the group of children.

Learning centers are set up in the classrooms so that small groups and individual children can choose to explore constantly varying materials related to the study of math, science, art, and language, while teachers observe and interact with the children and the materials. In most rooms centers include a sensory table for age-appropriate experimentation with sand and water, a block center for large motor exploration, an area for use of manipulatives such as legos that encourage development of fine motor skills, a writing area and art center with a table, easels, and a changing selection of writing and drawing implements and molding materials to maintain attention, a drama/housekeeping center, and a quiet, comfortable book corner. In summer, the children often engage in large, group projects that last over many weeks both indoors and outdoors.

Teachers find creative ways to incorporate their area of study into all these areas, starting with children’s interests and needs. Each day, in each room, we set out pre-planned activities in the centers. We choose activities that are interesting, inviting, age and developmentally appropriate, open-ended and process oriented. If a particular activity is popular, teachers may choose to repeat it often (with slight variations) until the intense interest passes. There are no adult-made models to follow, no particular way to use the materials available, and (within reason) the children are able to easily modify or add to the materials to suit their own interests and needs. This freedom to act upon their own interests, in their own ways contributes to the successful development of children’s self esteem.

View curriculum as everything that happens during our time with the children. Believe that each moment offers opportunities to explore relationships and to create a community that nurtures children, teachers, and families. Each moment holds a range of feelings and interests. There are always questions to pursue, hypotheses to investigate, and discoveries to celebrate. Curriculum happens all day, in every routine, action, interaction, and rearrangement of the room.

Small peoples of the world look with hope to Yugra

Russians are not without reason proud of their multinationality. Such
the variegated composition helps to maintain an amazing tolerance,
which is inherent in all residents of Russia and helps to solve many
Problems. But things take a different turn when we think about
small nations.

Russians are not without reason proud of their multinationality. Such
the variegated composition helps to maintain an amazing tolerance,
which is inherent in all residents of Russia and helps to solve many
Problems. But things take a different turn when we think about
small nations. It just so happens that most of them
survived only in those places where a simple Russian and not
thinks to go. For example, in places where climatic
conditions are far from ideal, where there are no shops and warm apartments. AND
after all, the inhabitants of our country go there, but with only one purpose:
extract oil and gas. It so happened that the main reserves
hydrocarbons in Russia are located in the places of residence of small peoples.
And here the problem arises before the authorities: to receive big money,
by destroying the living conditions of the indigenous population or by applying other
extraction methods, to preserve the layer of ancient culture. Yes Icelanders.
great importance is attached to the language and the spirit of the ancient sagas, which
preserved for centuries, allowed them to preserve the national
self-awareness and rise from poverty to the position of one of the leading
world powers, from an isolated island society to an open
an international power that has demonstrated internal strength and
can respond flexibly to new conditions. nine0003

The problem is so old that it needs to be talked about constantly in order to
not to consign it to oblivion, like dozens of others. That’s why it’s so important
an initiative of Ugra, which is trying with all its might to save small peoples
from losing their uniqueness. Great help in this
is a conference on the cultural dimension of cooperation between countries
Arctic Council, held in January 2006, discussing
topic “Arctic partnership as a basis for preserving traditional
cultures of the peoples of the North”. Opening it, the Minister of Culture and Mass
communications of Russia Alexander Sokolov noted that it was
initiative of our country for the first time such a meeting is held
representatives of the Nordic countries, which is a breakthrough in
activities of the Arctic Council over the 10 years of its existence.
The minister expressed concern that the globalization of the economy,
commercialization of culture hits hardest on indigenous peoples.
the peoples of the North, where the main raw material resources of the planet are located.
As a consequence of this? threat of extinction from the treasury of the world
civilization of more than fifty languages, the main carriers of the cultural
memory of any nation and nationality. There are such peoples in every
country, but their situation is especially difficult in the producing countries and
countries such as Canada. The growth of technology and scientific and technological progress
slowly replacing the last islands of primitive culture. nine0103 Yugra is doing a lot of work.

Chairman of the District Duma Vasily Sondykov and representative
Government of Ugra in the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation
Gennady Oleinik spoke about the legislative support of problems
indigenous peoples of the district, on the participation of aborigines in the work of bodies
authorities, activities of their public organizations and associations.
Director of the Center for the Development of Education, Culture and Gender Policy
Associations of Indigenous Peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East
Fenya Lekhanova made a presentation “Development of language and culture?
the future of the peoples of the Arctic”. The Governor of Yugra and the Minister of Culture and
Mass Communications of the Russian Federation discussed the implementation of the agreement on
cooperation signed by the Government of the Autonomous Okrug and
Ministry last year, preparing for the film festival “Spirit of Fire”
(February-March 2006) and All-Russian Slavic Days
writing and culture, which will be held in Khanty-Mansiysk in the spring
this year. nine0003

It is hard not to notice that all the participants who gathered for the conference,
are concerned about the state of affairs in this area and direct all their efforts to
improving the situation of the natives. Director General for
Indigenous Peoples of Heritage Canada, Alan Clark noted,
that there is a close relationship between language, culture and sustainable
development of the people, therefore the government of Canada not only leads
financing of measures for the preservation of indigenous languages
peoples, but also research work in this direction. Problem
the preservation of Aboriginal languages ​​is also relevant for a thriving
economic relations of Norway. Deputy General
Director of the Ministry of Culture and Church Affairs of this country Alf
Modvar noted that out of 40,000 Saami, 25 speak their native language
thousand. To rectify the situation, the government launched a massive
publication of books in this language, broadcasts in cooperation with
Sweden and Finland, where this nation also lives. And
there has been a steady interest in the native language, especially among
youth. Is Alaska close to Russia in terms of the diversity of indigenous peoples?
there are more than 220 of them. Since, by the nature of the economy, this
American state is close to the Khanty-Mansiysk Okrug, then the oldest
Advisor to the Secretary of State for Alaska, U.S. Department of the Interior
Drew Pearce focused only on the experience of working with the Inuit. Them
many powers have been transferred, in particular in the field of education, which
allows you to teach children in their native land, in their native environment, attracting
this elders. Authority in planning and zoning
allow them to preserve their hunting and fishing grounds. Aboriginal people
working in the national economy are provided
special holidays for seasonal traditional crafts,
which allows them to maintain their cultural identity. nine0003

This conference was unique in its kind. For the first time there were
discussed Aboriginal issues on the scale of several leading
countries of the world. Why did she go to Ugra. Just HMAO? one of
few subjects of Russia, if not the only one that continues to
socially responsible policy towards the inhabitants of the region.
Housing is being built for the natives, special programs are being held,
aimed at preserving culture. The guests of the district noted the great
the number of events and festivals that raise interest in
life and lifestyle of the indigenous population. Ancient Ugra? this is territory
future. Sociocultural policy is based on this principle.
districts. And at the end of the Conference, its participants were once again convinced of
this at the play of the theater of the Ob Ugrians “Following the sun, following the world
watching”. Ancient folklore motifs of the Khanty and Mansi sounded on not
less ancient language in modern musical and lighting design,
sparkling with new colors. And they carried them into the hall to young spectators the same
young artists. nine0003

Seeing the amazing growth in the number of objects
culture, education, a network of museums and libraries, with that interesting
the life that representatives of a multinational region live,
preserving and increasing the spiritual wealth of predecessors,
foreign guests could not help but ask the question: how the local authorities
manages to involve in solving problems, including the root
population, representatives of the business community?

The answer is surprisingly simple: in Ugra culture is no longer just one
from the forms of satisfaction of needs and becomes active
participant in socio-economic processes. It’s fine
understands not only the regional authorities, but also the leaders
oil and gas companies that sponsor many
international and all-Russian cultural projects of Ugra residents, such as
film festival “Spirit of Fire”, theatrical ? “Seagull”, folk festival
crafts, etc.
