CLICK on an ENVIRONMENT AREA below to watch a VIDEO and LEARN MORE about the unique ways we use NINE LEARNING AREAS in our classrooms to optimize children’s developmental learning objectives.

Our Nine Environments

Literacy/Language

Before a child learns to read and write, the path to literacy has already begun. Playing with books, scribbling on paper, tracing letters on an e-tablet are all steps of emergent literacy.

Fine Motor

Fine motor control involves the coordinated movement of small muscles in the hands and fingers. Strong fine motor skills are essential as we approach many self-help and life tasks.

Large Motor

Large motor skills involve movement of the large muscles in arms, legs, and core body. Activities include walking, running, skipping, jumping, throwing, climbing, biking, balancing, dancing and more.

STEM Learning

Science-Technology-Engineering-Math: Experiences in these areas help preschoolers develop many skills while engaging their natural curiosity.

Learn More

Social Studies

Social studies is the study of people and the ways they relate to others, the community and the world.

Learn More

Social/Emotional

Children are best able to learn when they are comfortable in an environment where they feel loved and secure. The world is a complicated social puzzle!

Learn More

Arts/Music

Children who are engaged with and learn to appreciate music and the arts are able to demonstrate knowledge and emotions in non-verbal, creative ways.

Learn More

Spiritual

Young children have a natural sense of awe, wonder and mystery. During these early years, we have the opportunity to unwrap a child’s spirituality and develop their connection to God.

Learn More

Cognitive

Preschool children are curious about the world and are able to acquire, organize and use information in increasingly complex ways.
