Zoo-phonics® is a method developed to make children strong readers and spellers using a “phono” (hearing), “oral” (speaking), “visual” (seeing), “kinesthetic” (moving), and tactile (touching)—whole-brain approach. The Animal Alphabet helps children remember the shapes and sounds of the letters. The Body Movement for each Animal Letter helps “cement” the phonemic information into memory.

Handwriting Without Tears® strives to make legible and fluent handwriting a natural and automatic skill for all children. Our unique curriculum uses entertaining, multisensory techniques and research-based methods to help students develop skills and form letters—from prewriting to printing to cursive.

During Jesus Time the children have the opportunity to hear the Bible stories through books, videos, and songs as well as acting out the story for their friends. They learn how the stories in the Bible apply to their lives. Our classrooms become a community of sharing the forgiveness and kindness we know in Jesus.
In the dramatic play area, the children learn to improvise and use things in a symbolic way to represent something else. This is abstract thinking! The children also are able to try on different adult roles and to solve social problems through negotiation with friends.
Children are learning math and science skills as well as new vocabulary concepts of texture, color, weight, and size as they engage in sensory activities.
When the children use blocks at school they learn concepts of shape, size, length, all of which help with reading and math. We also learn to use our imagination and cooperate with others!
During manipulative play the children learn hand-eye coordination, to make and repeat patterns, symmetry, shapes, order, and design. These are all math skills.
As the children explore science they use their fine motor skills and tactile senses. They learn about cause and effect, experimentation, questioning, and logic!
During coloring and writing, the children learn to hold a pencil/crayon and to control the pressure. They use hand-eye coordination and are able to express themselves with words when describing their drawings.
The children are able to use their imagination, creativity and express their feelings. They learn the relationship of space and size, concepts of symmetry, balance, and design. These are all math and reading skills!
