OUR CURRICULUM PLANTS THE SEED OF EXCELLENCE
Our proprietary
Seedlings Early Childhood Education Curriculum utilizes theme-based lessons to strengthen their emerging skills in reading, writing, science, technology, and math. Kindergarten readiness is fostered using a multi-sensory approach to learning. We encourage discovery through teacher guided instruction and child-led exploration focused on effective communication, the ability to follow instruction, and how to work cooperatively with peers. Enrichment programs such as Spanish Sprouts, Signing Sprouts, Singing Sprouts, Yoga & Mindfulness, and Handwriting Without Tears® expand on key building blocks that support our multi-sensory approach. By embracing every moment as an opportunity to learn, all developmental areas are met, unlocking every child's potential.
- Creative Arts & Music: Together, we explore tempos and rhythms, sing in groups, learn about a multitude of instruments and create beautiful artwork, as we work to increase hand-eye coordination.
- Physical & Well-Being: Learning the habits necessary to live a healthy, active life begins early in life. Large motor activities along with small muscle strength build fine-motor skills and healthy bodies. Children are developing large motor skills for sports and dance, and fine motor skills for writing and playing instruments.
- Language & Literacy: Pre-K is a critical time for the development of language, literacy and a love of reading. Along with fostering verbal communication, reading and writing skills continue to expand through creative journaling and a classroom filled with labeled items expanding their vocabulary and sight word knowledge.
- Mathematics & Science: Interactive learning using a whiteboard enables ocean exploration through underwater webcams, and STREAM activities create a rich environment of discovery. Children will also learn numbers, measurements, and patterns through hands-on learning.
- Social & Emotional: Children build the self-esteem and self-regulation skills necessary to succeed in elementary school. Studies show that social-emotional intelligence is one of the best indicators of future success. By choosing playtime partners, forming friendships, and learning how to take care of personal needs, children build the independence and confidence needed to advance.
- Cognitive: The development of reasoning skills allows preschool children to create innovative solutions as well as the ability to persist in solving difficult problems. It's all about the individual as we learn through a variety of themes and styles, so every child can progress naturally and without frustration.
