The second curriculum manual focuses on the academic curriculum areas of Language Arts and Mathematics.
Language Arts
The Language Arts curriculum focuses on the pivotal components of language — oral development, writing, parts of speech, and reading. The easy to implement activities carefully build your child’s understanding of language in a methodical and logical system. As you work with your child on these activities, he/she will quickly develop a love of language and the skills required to read confidently. Some of the proven learning outcomes of the Language Arts curriculum include:
- recognizing the written symbols of letters
