This course is designed to help students identify the essential factors required in implementing a program that enhances and supports school-age development and learning. Helping students to understand the unique differences and challenges facing school-aged children will help educators as they design developmentally responsive inclusive curricula. In addition, the role of the educator, use of guidance, and effective teaching and learning experiences will be examined. A practical approach will provide opportunities for students to plan, implement, and evaluate responsive inclusive curriculum for children six to nine years of age.
