Abstract	This article deals with early childhood curriculum models. The author discusses why programs use a curriculum and how programs use curriculum models. She mentions curriculum models that programs are using, such as: (1) The Creative Curriculum; (2) High/ Scope; (3) Project Approach; (4) Reggio Emilia; and (5) Montessori. She also presents the criteria that programs use to select a curriculum or curriculum resources, which include: (1) clearly written; (2) allows teachers to design a program that is responsive to individual and group needs and characteristics; (3) contains a parent involvement component; (4) addresses outcomes and states expectations; and (5) consistent with the needs of the community. The author also discusses questions that directors ask when considering curriculum models. A Buyer's Guide to Curriculum is also included. (ERIC).
