How we create, shape and monitor learning.

Curriculum

Your word, O Lord, is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.  Psalm 119:105

Our teachers use a variety of curriculum in our preschool classrooms to provide a wide range of active, hands-on learning experiences.  The curriculum includes:

  • Handwriting without Tears is an age-appropriate writing, literacy, and math curriculum designed with preschoolers in mind.  This curriculum offers many hands-on activities to help make learning enjoyable and fun. www.hwtears.com
  • Creative Curriculum is used as the foundation for the planning and implementation of activities and lessons in our preschool classroom. www.teachingstrategies.com
  • We have chapel every day in preschool and Bible/Chapel lessons are incorporated into daily activities in our classrooms.  We use several Bible curriculums, including PLANTED, Karyn Henley’s Early Childhood Bible Series, and The Beginner’s Bible. www.thebeginnersbible.com www.plantedcurriculum.com
  • Healthy Habits for Life is a fitness and nutrition curriculum that the teachers use throughout the year. www.sesameworkshop.org/healthyhabits
  • Our Fitness and Nutrition program is a fun, active program that helps builds large motor and coordination skills and teaches children about healthy foods.

Assessments & Portfolios

Teachers monitor each child’s progress on an on-going basis throughout the year. They use observations, an assessment tool, and work samples to gain insight to the child’s development level. Assessments are done twice per year; once in January and again at the end of the year.

Assessments are reviewed with the parents at parent-teacher conferences in February and sent home at the end of the school year.

In addition, a portfolio is created on each child and given as a keepsake to the parents at the end of the school year. The portfolio paints a vivid picture of your child’s progress through our preschool program and is a wonderful memento to remember these precious years.
