Designing curriculum in early childhood relies on the teacher and/or programs selection of DAP curriculum themes. Ideas for topics come from many different sources including childrens interests, cultural events, age appropriate goals, family and community topics, curriculum guides, and books to name a few.

Review the theme you selected in Module 01.

In a 1-page paper describe how and why the theme is DAP for the age group and setting you have selected for your project. Be sure to include information about how the theme is age appropriate, individually appropriate, as well as culturally/socially appropriate.
