Abstract | "Curiosity Corner" is an early childhood curriculum emphasizing children's language and literacy skills. It comprises two sets of 38 weekly thematic units--one for three-year-olds and one for four-year-olds. Program staff conduct daily lessons using sequential daily activities. One study of "Curiosity Corner" meets the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) evidence standards, and one study meets WWC evidence standards with reservations. The two studies included more than 500 preschool children from 34 preschools in Florida, Kansas, and New Jersey. Based on these two studies, the WWC considers the extent of evidence for "Curiosity Corner" to be medium to large for oral language and small for print knowledge, phonological processing, cognition, and math. No studies that meet WWC standards with or without reservations examined the effectiveness of "Curiosity Corner" in the early reading and writing domain. (Contains 9 footnotes.)
