The Continuous Progress Program of the Board of Education for the City of Chicago focuses on the improvement of education for the individual child and the upgrading of educational practices and techniques. The philosophy of the program is based on the individualized rate of teaching and learning of the pupil. Its planning and organization is dependent upon the involvement of teachers, administrators, students, and parents. Behavioral objectives, mastery learning, specialized learning problems, and curriculum development aids are included in the curriculum of the program. Various teaching approaches are used, within an emphasis on the need for individualization. The King School Reading and Mathematics Skills Charts are employed as aids in curriculum development along with the Schubert School Continuous Development Syllabus. The program stresses the need for flexible classrooms, continuous communication with parents, and an accurate pupil evaluation. (A three-page bibliography is included along with forms used for communication with parents and evaluation of pupils.) (BRB)
