The LongmontFYI (related to the Daily Times-Call of Longmont (CO, USA) had a feature story about the benefits of preschool for children with disabilities. Paula Aven Gladych described some typical preschool activities, legislation mandating preschool programs, grant-supported efforts to improve services, and evidence about benefits of preschool programs.
The schools she reviewed use Creative Curriculum. The Web site for the company provides testimonials about its effectiveness, but not research. I searched ERIC and PsycINFO for research about its effectiveness, but didn’t find any. I have to wonder how well these schools’ students would do if they were given something that we know produces beneficial outcomes.
