Readiness teachers, psychologists, and administrative staff work together to implement the program’s curriculum in alignment with the NYS Common Core and NYS DOE Social Emotional Learning Standards.
Current curriculum components include:
- Teaching Strategies® The Creative Curriculum©
The Creative Curriculum© is aligned with the NYS Common Core, and maintains data on each child to assist teachers with instructional planning and reporting of progress. Learn more about Teaching Strategies® by following this external link https://teachingstrategies.com/about/
The TEACCH® is implemented in some of our classrooms. A TEACCH classroom is structured, with separate, defined areas for each task, such as individual work, group activities, and play. It relies heavily on visual learning, use of schedules made up of pictures and/or words to organize their day and to help them move smoothly between activities.

- The Creative Curriculum© PATHS® (Providing Alternative THinking Strategies) Program
PATHS® is designed to facilitate the development of self-control, emotional awareness, and interpersonal problem-solving skills. The purposes of the PATHS Curriculum are to enhance the social competence and social understanding of children, as well as to facilitate educational processes in the classroom. Our goal is to help our students understand and act on their emotions so as to be able to appropriately handle social situations.
