THE PROGRAM SUPPORTS CHILDREN'S PROGRESS AND DEVELOPMENT THROUGH COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN THE AREA OF EARLY LEARNING, HEALTH, AND FAMILY WELL-BEING. THE OVERALL GOAL OF BRIGHT BEGINNINGS, INC. IS TO PROVIDE CHILDREN WITH A LEARNING ENVIRONMENT THAT HELPS THEM DEVELOP SOCIALLY, EMOTIONALLY, PHYSICALLY, AND COGNITIVELY TOWARDS SCHOOL READINESS DURING THEIR PROGRAM ENROLLMENT. BBI'S PROGRAM COMPONENTS INCLUDE:EDUCATION - BRIGHT BEGINNINGS' EDUCATION PROGRAM EQUIPS CHILDREN WITH LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES THAT BUILD LITERACY SKILLS AND PREPARE THEM TO ENTER KINDERGARTEN READY-TO-LEARN AND ON PAR WITH THEIR HIGHER-RESOURCED PEERS. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT CHILDREN EXPERIENCING HOUSING INSTABILITY ARE MORE LIKELY TO FALL BEHIND IN SCHOOL, REPEAT A GRADE, REQUIRE SPECIAL EDUCATION SERVICES, AND ARE LESS LIKELY TO DEMONSTRATE ACADEMIC PROFICIENCY OR GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL.BRIGHT BEGINNINGS LARGELY CONCENTRATES ON EARLY LITERACY, AS WELL AS TEACHING CHILDREN HOW TO RECOGNIZE LETTERS, NUMBERS, STORY THEMES, AND MORE. WE USE THE EVIDENCE-BASED HIGHSCOPE CURRICULUM TO FOSTER SKILLS AND QUALITIES SUCH AS CURIOSITY, CREATIVITY, COLLABORATION, AND CRITICAL THINKING. HIGHSCOPE'S PLAN/DO/REVIEW METHOD ENCOURAGES CHILDREN TO PLAN THEIR ACTIVITIES, ASK QUESTIONS, AND MAKE DECISIONS BASED ON THE INFORMATION THEY HAVE GATHERED. THIS METHOD ALLOWS EACH CHILD TO DEVELOP AT THEIR OWN PACE IN A SUPPORTIVE AND ENCOURAGING ENVIRONMENT.
