Our curriculum is based on the universal design for learning.
It comprises of instructional materials and methods that makes
learning goals achievable by individuals with wide differences in
their abilities. Our curriculum designers have considered the
scope of student abilities and learning styles, taking into account
varying abilities to see, hear, speak, move, read, write,
comprehend English, attend, organize, engage, and remember.
They have created a "package" of classroom resources and
situations that can be used as desired to meet the needs of
all individuals. Our curriculum encourages learning through a
combination of flexible materials and methods that provide
access, challenge, and engagement for each student.
Our curriculum is highly flexible yet structured in terms of
teaching methods, classroom environment and assessment and
evaluation process.
Students do not need to adapt themselves to the limits of the
curriculum, because our curriculum can accommodate their
particular needs. Instruction is equitable to all students,
provides them easily perceptible information, requires low
physical effort, and provides the appropriate level of challenge.
It empowers the teacher to identify and break down the right
barriersthose that impede the student's access (such as
physical barriers) or their path to understanding (such as the
information that is scaffolded for students)but maintain an
appropriate level and type of difficulty. If we eliminate all
barriersif there is no difficultystudents will not learn.
It encourages a classroom atmosphere where all students are
welcome and supportedfrom the physical environment that
provides easy access to all learning areas to the acknowledgment
that each student is important and is included in all activities.

The curriculum prepares the teachers for the following:
?Know their class
?Set clear learning goals: What all students should learn, what
most will learn, what some will learn
?Organize and prepare materials to be used
?Use the most effective teaching strategy
?Use available resources
?Move beyond the textbook
?Know how to integrate technology
?Understand student groupings as a resource
?Use collaboration and cooperative learning as resources
?Convey expectations to students
?Link assessment to teaching
The teachers are trained professionally to make use of flexible
curricular materials and technology. They know how to assess the
individual needs of their students and what instructional strategy
will best meet those needs. The teachers are made to understand
that learning theories such as multiple intelligences and brain-
based learning can provide a means of understanding learning
differences within and outside of the special education domain.
They are prepared to apply the lessons of progressive educational
practices such as differentiated and anchored instruction,
collaborative teaching, or constructivism to their particular
situation.
Our curriculum begins with empowering the teachers with how
best to provide for the range of student abilities in their
classrooms, what overall and specific learning goals are most
appropriate for the students, what methods of instruction will
help them achieve those goals, and how teachers will assess what
the students have learned.
The central concern of the curriculum is what the students can
and will learn, rather than the general assumption that what is
taught is necessarily what is being learned.
In a NURTURE designed classroom, the teacher's job is to provide
individualized paths to learning for students by using the built-in
flexibility of instructional and assistive technologies, progressive,
proven teaching methods, and varied learning situations. Physical
barriers to learning are removed for those students with sensory-
motor disabilities and cognitive disabilities are accommodated by
variable presentation of information.
