CURRICULUM

---

Children learn through hands-on exploration, movement, creativity, and discovery.

Each day includes routines, teacher-guided activities, free exploration, and opportunities for choice.

We support social, emotional, physical, and academic development.

Children are introduced to early literacy, math, science, and problem-solving in age-appropriate ways.

Children explore growth, nature, and healthy habits as the world comes to life.

Focus areas include: fruits and vegetables, insects, plants, flowers, gardening, and butterflies. Children also explore ocean mammals and the five senses while building early concepts like same and different, sequencing, and size (short/tall, small/large, deep/shallow) through hands-on activities.

Seasonal celebrations such as St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Earth Day, Mother’s Day, and Teacher Appreciation Day help connect learning to real-life experiences.

Learning connects to the world around us through exploration, science, and everyday life experiences.

Focus areas include: farm animals, pets, reptiles, the environment, weather, and our bodies. Children also learn about nutrition, health, and summer safety while exploring concepts like day and night, near and far, above and below, and clean and dirty through hands-on activities.

Seasonal celebrations such as Father’s Day, Independence Day, and graduation help build real-world connections.

Fall focuses on identity, emotions, and understanding the world around us.

Focus areas include: All About Me, emotions, feelings, family (including Grandparents Day), and school routines. Children explore leaves, pumpkins, and early science topics like the solar system, while learning foundational concepts such as directions (up/down, left/right, forward/backward) and measurement (full/empty, weights). Hands-on activities like cooking and sensory exploration support learning.

Seasonal celebrations such as Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Veterans Day help children connect to traditions and community.

Winter focuses on relationships, community, and seasonal changes.

Focus areas include: family time, friendships, love, and community helpers. Children explore winter themes like the Arctic, ice, snow, and hibernation, as well as animals such as zoo and wild animals. Learning concepts include opposites (hot/cold, wet/dry, fast/slow, few/many, smooth/rough, slimy/sticky) and themes like transportation, safety, and rainbows.

Seasonal celebrations include Hanukkah, Christmas, New Year’s, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Valentine’s Day, Presidents’ Day, and Groundhog Day.
