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.
