Math in High Scope

High Scope uses what are called 'Key Experiences' for teaching

These are the categories for the High Scope Preschool Key Experiences for Math:

• Classification
  

• Seriation
  

• Number
  

• Space
  

• Time
  

Each of these categories holds several Preschool COR (Child Observation Record) Items.
E.g. the COR Items on Classification are:

• Sorting Objects
  

• Identifying Materials and Properties
  

• Identifying Natural and Living Things
  

High Scope defines 5 levels for every COR Item and through daily interaction I will know what developmental levels the children are at. I can then devise activities around the childrens' interests that are specially designed to bring the children on in their development.

Please see the CORs Applied page for a more detailed explanation of how I use the above 'Key Experiences'.
