 “By the end of year 2000, all children in America will start school ready to learn.”  Educational practices of testing children for kindergarten entry and placement attempts to obtain an older, more capable cohort of children at each grade level.  The current curriculum expectations DO NOT match the developmental level of the children  In effect, these strategies blame the victims, the children, rather than confronting the real problem--an inappropriate curriculum

 Domain knowledge is an interrelated network of information and principles about a particular area which is distinguishable from a multiple of discrete “bits” of knowledge.  Foundation knowledge are those concepts or bodies of knowledge that en-ender, shape, and constrain other conceptual understandings.  Concluded that a clarification of the nature and efficacy of the subject learning, for young children is the priority for a research agenda for early childhood curricula.

Mary W. Kariuki, Micah C. Chepchieng, Stephen N. Mbugua and Owen N. Ngumi, 2006 Effectiveness of early childhood education programme in preparing pre- school children in their social-emotional competencies at the entry to primary one  This study established that pre-school curriculum and teaching are biased toward academic skills hence the dimensions of social-emotional development do not get as much emphasis.  The results of the study indicated that pre-school teachers focused more on preparing children academically than in other developmental areas such as social-emotional development.

Academic Achievement (Point-of-View of Authors, Researchers and Supporters of ECE)

International Learning Styles Conference New York, USA

 High-quality, intensive ECE programs have positive effects on cognitive development, school achievement and completion, especially for low-income children in model programs designed to ameliorate poverty.  Young children learn best through engaging in spontaneous and reciprocal interactions, meaningful activities and caring relationships.  Participating in stimulating, warm and responsive ECE programs supports children’s excitement and pleasure in learning and encourages

  • ngoing engagement in learning activities.

 “The current findings reveal that the modest association between early child care and subsequent academic achievement and behavior seen in earlier study findings persists through childhood and into the teen years.“  They noted a modest correlation between higher quality care and higher results on cognitive and academic assessments, including reading and math tests.
