12 MONTH - 24 MONTH CURRICULUM

Faith Development Sharing our Christian faith and teaching children about Jesus allows children to grow in their relationship with Him. Opportunities exist in all classrooms to foster an environment of spiritual formation, through teacher/child interaction and integrating spiritual elements into lessons and activities. 

Art is an expression of God’s beauty in His creation. Children will develop awareness and learn to express themselves in a creative way and through a variety of media. Children will experience basic artistic elements and will be exposed to art of various cultures. 

Language Development helps children to build language skills and strategies through aural, oral, and written instruction and opportunities. Through language experiences children will be enabled to find enjoyment, information, insight and inspiration. Children are taught to speak effectively and appropriately in a variety of settings and for different purposes. Children will begin to learn to write and draw in order to convey the written language. Children will begin to learn to communicate in an expressive manner that is essential for their individual enrichment and enjoyment.  

Mathematics helps children to develop skills and enables them through experiences to become flexible thinkers and problem solvers. Children will become adept at the use of mathematics, reasoning, and memorization strategies through the use of age-appropriate manipulatives, visuals and print. Concepts are introduced through play, experience and discovery. Children who are developmentally ready and interested will have a variety of creative, resourceful and imaginative opportunities. 

Music helps children to explore their innermost feelings and gives them an opportunity to express themselves through musical expression and rhythmic movement. Children will begin to develop music literacy as they acquire skills through story-telling, movement, focused listening, tap, use of instruments, dance and rhythm.

Physical Education and Health contributes to the physical, mental, emotional, psychological, and social development of children. Children will develop a sense of personal well-being, healthy choices, self-discipline and interpersonal relationships through interactive movement, games and activities. Our philosophy during this time is to encourage a sense of cooperation and trust as we foster the expansion of each individual’s abilities.
