high/scope
By chris

Clip to ScrapBook   
The High/Scope program is based on Piaget's intellctual development theory which maintains that children must be actively involved in their own learning through experiences and encounters with people & things. (One of my
text books has a short chapter summary on High/Scope & I had to do a class presentaion with some fellow students on it.)
Try these web sites for more info: www.highscope.com (their home page)and you can get a nice thumb nail explanation of this educational approach at www.circleofinclusion.org/approaches/highcope.html
Do a search & you'll come up with even more. There is a group
called the High/Scope Educational Research Foundation (Ypsilanti, MI)and they have a book: The High/Scope K-3 Curriculum: An Introduction. You may want to try to get a copy.

Good Luck! I did part of my student teaching in a REACH program classroom (developmentally 3-, 4- & 5-year olds) that was partially High/Scope based.
