Preparing Our Scholars for the Future

A total approach to learning is vital. Rest assured that your child will be totally prepared 

for kindergarten and beyond. Our advantage is both what we teach and how we teach. We 

present activities in ways that create the best learning opportunity. 

 

There are five main areas of development we consider crucial for kindergarten readiness. 

The U.S. Department of Education agrees with the importance of these five areas, as do 

individual states, as evidenced by their kindergarten entrance standards. Children develop 

skills in five main areas of development:  

 

Cognitive Development​

This is the child's ability to learn and solve problems. For example, this includes a 

two-month-old baby learning to explore the environment with hands or eyes or a 

five-year-old learning how to do simple math problems. 

 

Social and Emotional Development​

This is the child's ability to interact with others, including helping themselves and 

self-control. Examples of this type of development would include: a six-week-old baby 

smiling, a ten-month-old baby waving bye-bye, or a five-year-old boy knowing how to 

take turns in games at school. 

 

Speech and Language Development​

This is the child's ability to both understand and use language. For example, this includes 

a 12-month-old baby saying his first words, a two-year-old naming parts of her body, or a 

five-year-old learning to say "feet" instead of "foots". 

 

Fine Motor Skill Development​

This is the child's ability to use small muscles, specifically their hands and fingers, to 

pick up small objects, hold a spoon, turn pages in a book, or use a crayon to draw. 

 

Gross Motor Skill Development​

This is the child's ability to use large muscles. For example, a six-month-old baby learns 

how to sit up with some support, a 12-month-old baby learns to pull up to a stand holding 

onto furniture, and a five-year-old learns to skip.

they can be. Our philosophy is centered on early education of your child.  Our unique age
