Galileo is a system that emphasizes a child’s progress on their developmental path, a teacher’s role in assessing children and documenting what the child has learned. The information attained through observations serves as the foundation of lesson planning. A lesson plan may be thought of as a “BLUEPRINT” for success. Its major purpose is to link goals and plans together in ways that promote the development of children. The two are linked and should be reflective of each other.
Galileo’s Curriculum component provides programs with model content that teachers may use when providing children with learning opportunities. There are 32 lesson plans provided to teachers. The lesson plans are intended to span the program year, while leaving four weeks available for teachers to plan special instruction. In addition, several hundred activities are available to teachers for use in the classroom and the home.
Each part is connected to the other. When “unpacking” a lesson plan, you will find goals and capabilities, specific activities that provide for learning opportunities, and a physical environment that fosters curiosity. (Clicking on the process directs you to that online help page.)
