Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
Yes. There is a continuum of teaching behaviors that is appropriate in high-quality programs. They range from nondirective to a more teacher-directed approach. It is useful for teachers to demonstrate or direct when information or materials are complex, when the concept is unfamiliar to children, when teaching certain skills, and when communicating new information.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:
Emergent curriculum: a process approach for curriculum planning that draws on teachers observations and childrens interests. Plans emerge from daily life interests and issues. Takes advantage of childrens spontaneity and teachers planning.
Integrated curriculum: 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.
Culturally appropriate curriculum: modifies the total school environment so that diverse ethnic and cultural groups will experience equal educational opportunities. The curriculum reflects the plurality of American society in general and the individual classroom in particular.
