Carolina Curriculum <show description>

The Carolina Curriculum is an assessment and intervention program designed for use with young children from birth to five years who have mild to severe disabilities.

With this proven curriculum, professionals in home-, school-, or centerbased environments will have an easy-to-use, criterion-referenced system that clearly links assessment with intervention and lets them work closely with the child’s teachers, family members, and other service providers.

Using The Carolina Curriculum is simple. In each of the age-specific volumes all the areas to be assessed are clearly laid out in logical sequences in an Assessment Log. A professional observes the child playing with familiar toys and other available materials in a naturalistic environment, and caregivers may or may not participate. After all appropriate activities in each sequence have been observed or attempted, professionals and caregivers examine the strengths and weaknesses revealed during assessment, pinpoint items that need the most work, and select from the teaching activities that correspond to the items in each sequence of the Assessment Log.

The Carolina Curriculum for Infants & Toddlers with Special Needs (CCITSN) - Includes 24 logical teaching sequences covering five developmental domains: cognition, communication, social adaptation, fine motor, and gross motor. Curricular sequences each consist of an introduction that explains why that sequence is important; suggested adaptations for children with visual, motor, and hearing impairments; and a list of behaviors associated with that sequence. For each behavior, users get a criterion that pinpoints the objective, a list of suggested materials for eliciting that behavior, procedures that help, and functional activities for encouraging that behavior within the child’s daily routine.

Appendices cover play and children with motor impairments, using object boards for teaching children with motor impairments, and more.

The Carolina Curriculum for Preschoolers with Special Needs (CCPSN) - Consists of 22 logical teaching sequences, covering the five developmental domains addressed in CCITSN. CCPSN is set up like CCITSN, but this volume targets more advanced, age-appropriate behaviors and includes suggestions for group activities appropriate for preschools or child care centers.
