Almost 40 years ago a teacher at the Prospect School sat down with Pat Carini to think about what she had been doing with her class of four- to seven-year-olds (“Group 1â€? that year at the school).  The notes from that Curriculum Interview (printed here, borrowed from the Archive, now housed at the University of Vermont) have gained a new life in the past year.   [Note:  to learn more about the Archive, click on “Archivesâ€? on our home page.  To learn more about the Prospect School in the 70s, click on “History.â€?]

 Is there anything that I could say to you that you do not already know? Deep down inside of each one of us lies the truth that only needs to be reawakened from time to time so that we remember what we already know. This is why the wisdom of the greatest people is so simple. That is why we need to listen to children because they speak from that simple place inside of them that is pure truth.
