About Our Curriculum...

MATH - the activities in our math center give children a concrete, hands-on experimental approach to developing basic math concepts. Math is a way of finding things out and problem solving. Math activities stimulate a child's inquisitiveness and is a vital factor in the child's learning process.

LANGUAGE is developed through meaningful experiences; listening to and learning finger plays, poems, and stories; seeing a print-rich environment; and by having many opportunities to talk and be listened to.

SCIENCE promotes the intellectual growth of children through stimulating their curiosity. Children are given hands-on real-life activities that either have predetermined conclusions (teaching cause and effect) or are open-ended and encourage a sense of discovery.

CREATIVITY - Our activities in the art center offer a variety of learning opportunities. Children gain their social skills as they share and cooperate with the use of materials. They explore colors, textures, and patterns, thus developing their visual and sensory abilities. They will assign their own meaning to their creations. Art provides a medium through which children can express themselves. Individual projects enhance a child's self concept.

MUSIC - In our musical games, children begin to get a sense of belonging to and functioning with a group of other children. Their fine motor and gross motor skills are strengthened through activities such as playing rhythm band instruments and marching to music.

HOME LIVING - Through our home living center a child can integrate what he has learned about the world around him and how he feels about himself in that world. Thus, the child develops a better understanding of self and others.
