CIEC 3650 Creative Arts and Children’S Literature in Early Childhood Education


This course focuses on the exploration of methods of curriculum development that weave children’s literature and the arts (fine arts, dramatic play, and music/movement) in programs for young children (preschool-grade 3). A thematic, multicultural approach is stressed. Students will learn to choose and evaluate literature for children and to plan and implement developmentally appropriate music, dramatic play, and art experiences that extend exemplary literature (folktales, fairytales, contemporary picture books, poetry, etc.) into the child’s world.
