Curriculum

 

The following concepts and themes are the foundation from which we will work at the Preschool.  Our staff uses the curriculum guide R is for Rainbow to introduce the alphabet and many of the math activities from Math Their Way are incorporated into the daily program.  Each teacher will bring special talents and skills to the program, which will also add to the content of our curriculum.
