After reading chapter 12 of Routman, I wondered how purposeful my Creative Curriculum is for my students. When considering my students development at a 4K level, I wonder how the curriculum I have been given best meets their needs.  I feel this way because, Routman strongly believes that student work should be connected to their lives, should be valuable to them, and should provide opportunities to expand their skills, knowledge and thinking. Based on Routman, I wonder if all the activities and assessments I am asked to do with my students are in their best interest as learners.
