Podcast Description:
What does it take to build a preschool curriculum that isn’t just play-based—but purpose-driven? In this insightful episode of Teach BIG: Unlocking the Mysteries of a Preschool Curriculum, Randi Whitney sits down with Rylie Saylor, Principal, and Danielle Dodson, Curriculum Coordinator of Strawberry Fields Preschool in Kemah, Texas—a school redefining early childhood education with intention, innovation, and heart.
Together, they unpack what goes into creating a high-impact preschool curriculum that develops language, literacy, social-emotional strength, and cognitive readiness. From phonemic awareness routines that grow with the child to center-based learning that aligns with developmental science, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at how Strawberry Fields merges structure with wonder in every lesson.
Whether you're an early childhood educator, program leader, or curriculum designer, this episode will inspire you to rethink what’s possible in a preschool classroom—and why the earliest years deserve our highest expertise.
