Monthly Curriculum
Infant
This month’s baby sign is “All Done”. To sign the phrase “all done” place both hands in front of your chest and flip them outwards and inwards.

Activities using music and songs add fun and happiness to your child’s day. Moving to music helps your child learn that she can use her muscles in different and fun ways. Songs help children practice words that she is just learning to say.

This month, your child will learn to connect the events in stories to her own life experiences, match animals with their sounds, and continue identifying shapes and colors.
Intermediate
This month, your child will learn to count to 30, recognize numbers 1-10, and identify animals and their habitats.
Pre-K I
This month, your child will retell favorite stories, and count items in groups to determine which group has more, and distinguish healthy from less healthy foods.
Pre-K II
This month, your child will use adjectives to describe settings, place objects in order by length, and add and subtract using concrete objects.
