Testimonials

"CreativeCurriculum.net has made things so much easier for everyone. How did we survive without it?  Teachers now have an easy way to store observation notes.  Because they can link each note to objectives, they have eliminated the time consuming process of sorting countless sticky notes.  Everything else is practically done for us -- check lists, progress reports, parent-teacher conference reports, and lesson planning forms.  Even better, CreativeCurriculum.net leads teachers to think about what areas they have not observed and subsequently leads to new activities in addition to the hundreds already included online. Your staff has been extremely helpful, answering every question we have asked. Thank you so much for creating such an effective, flexible, and comprehensive system... I am looking forward to sharing the data with school district officials, our Board of Directors, and our funding and supervisory agencies to demonstrate our program's continued effectiveness."

"CreativeCurriculum.net is a remarkable and unique tool.  It supports teachers, children and families.  It is hard to believe that technology could bring families, children and teachers closer together.  But, in fact, with the child-centered philosophy of The Creative Curriculum and the thoroughly considered computer design, this tool enables more communication than I ever dreamed possible!"

"We LOVE the system. I love that we can enter in observations and check off
the objectives that relate to the observation, which sorts the objective automatically. It may take time to type the observation in but it is a huge time-saver."

"The information from the Activity Library has energized our teachers. The system's ability to group children by steps on each objective has made it easier for the teachers to individualize our curriculum. The Group Reports have not only highlighted strengths and progress, they have also enabled us to target program areas that need more attention."

We love CreativeCurriculum.net!"

"I love the way we can enter observations online. It's so helpful to see the evidence of each child's learning and get reminders about the objectives on the same screen where we enter information about child progress."

"Teachers see how all of their children are performing in every area, which
more effectively connects instructional planning to student needs. The
information in their narrative reports is more complete and more specific."
