Our Curriculum is based on monthly themes supported by the Pennsylvania Early Childhood Education Standards. These Early Learning Standards are research-based standards that identify key learning areas of development for children. They are used as a guide to intentionally integrate developmental knowledge with the attitudes, skills and concepts children need to make progress in all learning areas. We also incorporate the Piaget Theory of Teaching in the development of our curriculum. This is most notable in our learning center approach, which allows for the child to learn and discover their environment naturally. The following centers can be found in all of our classrooms.
