Curriculum
We offer an emerging curriculum involving differentiation, process art, science & sensory experiences, fine & gross motor development, math, writing and early literacy. We also integrate the State of Nevada Infant & Toddler Guidelines & State of Nevada Pre-Kindergarten Guidelines into our weekly Lesson Plans.
Tykes has created a unique Bible Curriculum, consisting of Bible stories based on Fruits of the Spirit that are interwoven with our social/emotional curriculum. This curriculum is used in all of our age groups and focuses on developing Christ-like character traits.
We use the Pre-K Engage New York Math curriculum alongside the Handwriting without Tears as our handwriting and phonics curriculum. We offer (not required) homework for Preschool and Pre-K students who would like the opportunity to practice skills at home.
Tykes Preschool has also created its very own Social Emotional curriculum focusing on self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills and responsible decision making. Each one of these learning objectives are tied to Nevada State standards.
We use the above mentioned curriculum and differentiate our activities based on individual needs. We are able to meet each child where they are at, and challenge them academically while also fostering their social-emotional skills. We provide a loving and safe environment to promote whole-child development.
