Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
A.
Emergent curriculum is a process approach for curriculum planning that draws on the teachers observations and childrens interests. Plans emerge from daily life interests and issues. It takes advantage of children's spontaneity and teacher's planning.
B.
Integrated curriculum is a set of courses designed to form a whole; coordination of the various areas of learning/study, making for continuous and harmonious learning. Math, science, language, and art are learned through many daily experiences, for instance.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
