Experience Curriculum in brightwheel has been designed to:

When navigating to the Learning page from your account on the web, there are two visible tabs: Room Plans and Library. Upon clicking into Library, you'll see two additional tabs: Lesson plans and Learning activities.

Let's review these in more depth and overview what Observations are.

Room Plans is where you can view the unique copy of a lesson plan assigned to a specific room.

Under the Library page, you will find two additional tabs.

Lesson Plans are where you can view pre-populated Experience Curriculum lesson plans or create your own to utilize across the entire program. Lesson plans can then be assigned to rooms which creates a unique copy.

Learning activities (aka Lessons) are the individual activities that make up a lesson plan. When using Experience Curriculum, these activities will be populated into your account automatically. They can be viewed from the Learning activities tab within your account on the web or through the lesson plans themselves by simply clicking on an activity on the web or app.

Observations allow educators to log student observations following a set of state standards or learning frameworks. Observations can be used to track progress toward specific developmental skills using our mobile app.

After upgrading, we want to ensure you have the resources you need at your fingertips! Each resource below overviews the various actions you can take from each tab on the new Learning page within your account.
