What is CEW?

Children Explore Their World (CEW) is an early childhood curriculum for three-year-olds. CEW is based on principles of project-based inquiry and driven by evidence-based practices that build teacher capacity and support successful implementation.

CEW consists of eight interdisciplinary, content-rich projects that build upon children's knowledge and increase in complexity. 

CEW was developed by the Center for Early Childhood Education and Intervention (CECEI) with funding from the ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½ State Department of Education, Division of Early Childhood.
