Preschool teachers recommend Frog Street curriculum for consistency across classrooms
Summary
Preschool teachers and administrators recommended adopting the Frog Street curriculum for the district’s preschool classrooms, saying it provides week‑by‑week lesson plans, aligned literature and easier team planning; the item was a presentation and the board will revisit as needed.
Administrators and preschool teachers presented a recommendation to adopt the Frog Street curriculum for the district’s preschool program, citing alignment across classrooms, built‑in literature and ready‑to‑use lesson plans as the primary benefits.
Sam said that Frog Street provides a clear Monday‑through‑Friday lesson structure, which will make planning consistent across four preschool classrooms and help a mostly new preschool staff. Preschool teachers, including Heather, described advantages such as age‑appropriate literature included in the materials, separate three‑ and four‑year‑old structures, and easier team planning so teachers can collaborate on what works and what should be adjusted.
The presentation was informational and the board moved on to other business; administrators said materials and further details would be available and that the curriculum committee and preschool staff had been involved in the selection process.
