This paper aims to develop an English curriculum for preschool children(ECPC) on the basis of Nuri-Curriculum and suggests a model of teaching English and some criteria for developing teaching materials which can be applied to it. The ECPC suggests that the contents of the ECPC should be toward actions and problem-solving, which is called ‘project’ in the classroom. The model of teaching English on the basis of the ECPC comprises three kinds of contents. They are Nuri-Curriculum as teaching goals, multiple intelligences as instructional settings, and hierarchies of knowledge as teaching methods. The procedures of the teaching model have the four steps, which are prepare, practice, perform, and assess. In the process of the model puzzles which are specially designed to have the children think in solving a problem are used.
