An emergent curriculum is a teaching approach that is based on the interests and needs of the children in the classroom. Rather than following a predetermined set of lessons or activities, teachers using an emergent curriculum pay close attention to the children's interests, ideas, and questions, and use these as a guide for developing the curriculum. This approach is often child-centered and encourages active participation and engagement from the children in their own learning process. It is flexible and responsive, allowing for opportunities for exploration, creativity, and personal growth.
