Core Knowledge Curriculum
The Core Knowledge Curriculum is an educational framework designed to provide a coherent and comprehensive foundation of knowledge for students. Developed by the Core Knowledge Foundation, it emphasizes the importance of a shared body of knowledge across subjects, ensuring that all students have access to the same essential information. This curriculum is structured around specific content areas, including literature, history, science, and mathematics.
The curriculum is organized by grade levels, with each grade building on the knowledge acquired in previous years. It aims to promote critical thinking and cultural literacy, helping students to make connections between different subjects. By focusing on a well-defined set of topics, the Core Knowledge Curriculum seeks to prepare students for future academic success and informed citizenship.
