Pre-K Classroom

This STEM-inspired classroom provides materials and experiences to develop critical thinkers and problem-solvers. Science, technology, engineering, and math are integrated throughout eight learning centers.

Art Center

Creativity, problem-solving, and self-expression are developed in this center, as children discover different art techniques, color concepts, and cooperation.

Block Center

Children build hand-eye coordination and practice inventiveness, as they develop goal-setting and critical thinking skills by counting, sorting, and patterning.

Dramatic Play Center

Through cooperative pretend play, children develop early writing and reading skills, explore emotional expression, and learn how to make sense of real life.

Math Center

Children begin to think critically about numbers and math concepts, such as addition and subtraction, while sorting, ordering, and using measuring tools.

Music & Movement Center

Children love to move, dance, and sing. This center helps them to work on physical coordination, cooperation, and communication while having fun.

Science Center

Classification, analysis, predicting, and experimenting are all skills children will use in this area, while exploring physical and early science concepts, including plant and animal life cycles.

Reading Center

Story reasoning, print awareness, and word recognition are some of the significant literacy skills children begin to develop in this area.

Writing Center

Children will begin to communicate through writing, as they work on letter and word recognition and formation, segmenting words into sounds, and putting sounds together to make words.

Curriculum & Developmental Scales

Early Innovators™, our STEM curriculum, integrates science, technology, engineering, and math into meaningful learning experiences. Children learn best when making connections between diverse skills and concepts. Teachers use our digital lesson planning tool to generate customized curriculum, based on assessment and observation, to meet the needs of each child as they progress along 10 developmental scales.

Approaches to Learning

Measures children’s ability to plan, set goals, and interact with others and with the environment.

Creative Arts

Measures children’s ability to express ideas and feelings through music, movement, visual arts, and drama.

Language

Measures children’s expressive and receptive vocabulary and their ability to use conversation skills and vocabulary to communicate effectively.

Literacy

Measures children’s phonological awareness, alphabet knowledge, reading, and writing skills.

Logic & Reasoning

Measures children’s sequencing, problem-solving, and symbolic and critical-thinking skills.
