82. Refocus Head Start On Its Mission: Education
    head start has no standard curriculum for school readiness, and the centers receive no guidance about which skills and knowledge to teach.  
    http://www.brook.edu/views/op-ed/ravitch/20030117.htm
    
    Extractions: Diane Ravitch When I was a young parent, I read to my children every day. When walking in the neighborhood, we read shop signs. They quickly learned letters and new words, and they were good readers by the time they started school. The children of parents who read with them regularly begin school with larger vocabularies than those children whose parents do not have the time or education to introduce them to literacy. The Head Start program was created in 1964 to give poor children the same kinds of educational opportunities that their more-advantaged peers get informally at home. Unfortunately, over the years, the program has abandoned its focus on education in favor of an array of social services, nutrition and counseling. After nearly 40 years and many billions of dollars, Head Start children still begin kindergarten far behind children from middle-class homes on measures of school readiness. Most Head Start teachers do not have a college degree and are poorly paid. A large proportion of them are parents of Head Start students. As if to echo the program's isolation from educational goals, it is located in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, not in the Department of Education.

    Extractions: What's the Buzz? Imagine a classroom full of preschool children wild about insects. A few students are studying an insect collection with a magnifying glass; others are buzzing like bees and hopping like grasshoppers. In one corner a teacher reads about insects to a rapt audience. This Head Start classroom in Alachua County, Florida, has been excited by a unique science and literature project called Marvelous Explorations through Science and Stories-MESS. With an IMLS National Leadership Grant, the Florida Museum of Natural History at Gainesville, the Alachua County Library District, and the School Board of Alachua County partnered to develop a series of theme-based kits containing science objects, books, inquiry-based activities, and resources for Head Start teachers. The project's "MESS Kits" and other offerings result from a strong partnership and thoughtful planning about the project's goals and expected outcomes. Kits for Kids The kits are available to 45 county Head Start classrooms serving more than 1,000 preschoolers (ages 3-5) from low-income, predominantly African-American families. They cover such topics as reptiles, insects, dinosaurs, sound, water, and sea life. Each fills a rolling suitcase and includes take-home packs with science objects, library books, and activities to involve families. The MESS kit on plant life includes insect finger puppets, garden tools, seed packets, a poster of the parts of a flowering plant, plastic fruits and vegetables, a CD for sing-alongs, and a collection of books on the subject.

    Extractions: Curriculum Statement The Curriculum of the ECASD Head Start Program is rooted in sound child development principles and practices. We believe that it is important to support each individual child in realizing his or her fullest potential. We believe in inclusive practices that allow each child—regardless of ability—to maximize his or her potential. We believe that it is important for each child to be an active participant in the learning process, to make choices and to experience success. We believe that it is vital for parents/guardians to be involved in their child’s education and that curriculum is best implemented in partnership with the family. To facilitate this curriculum we hire teachers who have bachelor’s or master’s degrees in early childhood education. We work in partnership with the ECASD to support all Head Start staff in their professional development by implementing a strong staff development program. It is the expectation of the ECASD that each employee will continue in the process of life-long learning. Assessment data and child goals are plotted on a classroom map. Teachers use this map as they write lesson plans and individualize activities for children. Assessment data is also collected and aggregated three times per year. The results of this aggregated data are used for program improvement activities that may include staff development activities, material purchases, implementation plans and program goals. This data is available to Head Start staff, Policy Committee/Council, Head Start Advisory Committees, ECASD School Board and the ECASD Curriculum Department.
