Our curriculum planning is based on the social, emotional, intellectual, physical development of the children in each class.  We provide monthly themes for the classroom that allow teachers to extend learning and build upon the interests of their students.  The 2's and 3’s class will touch briefly on most themes while the Mixed-Age and the Pre-K classes will go more in depth into each unit.  The following is a tentative outline of themes and dramatic play centers for the year.  Teachers have the freedom to adapt this calendar to best fit the needs of their class.  Further details and calendar changes can be found in teacher newsletters.
