Primary Colors Early Learning Series

Based on extensive and proven research that has shown that children learn best thru play and the notion that children must aqcuire certain pre-acedmic skills before formal schooling begins, Primary Colors has developed its own theme based curriculum which uses a holistic approach to early childhood education. We combine play and education in a way that ensures your young student is acquiring the valuable skills needed for formal schooling.  Our curriculum incorporates the Early Childhood Standards of Quality for Pre-Kindergarten (ECSQ-PK). 

 

And as your child grows and changes, we will use curriculum guidelines to help determine which activities are appropriate for each age and stage of development so that your child isn’t overwhelmed by activities that are developmentally inappropriate for him/her. Our curriculum allows children to use their individuality, imagination, and curiosity on a daily basis. Each child participates in daily periods of theme related play, small & large group activities, outdoor play (weather permitting), child initiated activities, small & gross skills development, as well as quiet and active activities. All activities are carefully planned, developmentally appropriate, and designed to meet each child’s physical, emotional, social, and cognitive needs.
