Early Learning

• Balanced literacy approach: phonemic awareness, letter identification, oral language development, vocabulary development, and excitement about reading. 
• Math instruction explores: operations, counting and cardinality, measurement and data. 
• Social Emotional Learning builds skills for learning: empathy, emotion management, friendship skills, problem solving, and transitioning to Kindergarten.

Early Learning programs use Teaching Strategies (TS) Gold.  This ongoing whole child assessment is based on strengths along a continuum.
