Here's What the Experts Are Saying About
The Pyramid Approach to Learning.

"I developed The Pyramid Approach to Learning after my extensive research into proven theory, efficacious practice, and current data about the ways in which the brain learns best. This approach, used widely in the Netherlands, is now available to teachers and children around the world. Independent studies have shown that The Pyramid Approach to Learning delivers exceptional results, especially in the areas of language and mathematics. "

- Dr. Jef J. van Kuyk, Creator,
The Pyramid Approach to Learning

"The US adaptation of the Netherlands-based Pyramid Approach to Early Learning provides an intriguing, intentional approach and methodology to help adults broaden and deepen children's thinking and learning. It has the potential to take teaching and learning to a new level."

- Dr. Sue Bredekamp, Co-editor, Developmentally
Appropriate Practice in Early Childhood Programs

"The Pyramid Approach to early learning is an approach that has a genuine respect for the great capacity of young children to process information, thoughts and feelings. And at the same time it gives teachers a chance to engage in the most satisfying of educational interactions - reciprocal teaching and learning."

- Carol Brunson Day, PhD, President and CEO,
National Black Child Development Institute

"Preschool approaches such as the Pyramid model are promising because of their attention to both child- and teacher-initiated experiences. Pyramid's theory-based approach to classroom projects-intentionally moving through the stages of Orientation, Demonstration, Broadening, and Deepening-has potential to create significant developmental benefits for children."

- Marilou Hyson, Author, Enthusiastic and
Engaged Learners: Approaches to Learning in the Early Childhood Classroom

"Pyramid's concept of educating the whole child is totally consistent with what early childhood education is all about. This breakthrough approach, that focuses on the cognitive, emotional and physical intelligences of young children, helps to put the pieces together on how to close the achievement and opportunity gap of young children in urban areas."
