Curriculum

There are several areas of the classroom to enrich your child:

 

Practical Life
The daily living exercises develop concentration. They involve self-help skills, eye-hand coordination, fine motor skills and sequencing. These exercises allow the child to imitate adult activities.

Sensorial
These activities enhance the five senses. Through the use of special materials, the child’s classifying powers become more refined. Awareness of the world is heightened as he experiments with shapes, color, sound, volume, taste, size, smell, and touch.

Language
The classroom provides opportunities for oral communication skills by using stories, poems, dramatics, and vocabulary enrichment. Exercises such as phonics, reading, creative writing and grammar are introduced as the child is ready.

Mathematics
Using manipulative materials the child is introduced to counting, numerals, the decimal system, concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication and divisions, as well as fractions, vocabulary and beginning math facts.

Science
The child is introduced to the universe and all of its aspects through geography, natural science, and geometry.
