Curriculum

In 2009, Little Angels Daycare & Preschool switched to an exciting new educational program. A couple of our very own directors partnered up to create Advanced Beginnings Curriculum (ABC). ABC was developed to link the State of Maine Early Childhood Learning Guidelines and Maine’s Infant Toddler Guidelines for Learning and Development with center’s learning ideals. Through the learning curriculum, your child will explore a well-rounded balance of learning experiences and many opportunities to develop important skills need to be success in school. Listed below are the skills that will be covered in the curriculum throughout the year:
Infant and Toddler Curriculum:
- Development into Social Beings
- Development into Strong and Healthy Bodies
- Development of the Ability to Communicate
- Development of Curious Minds
Preschool/Pre-Kindergarten Curriculum (3-6 years):
- Personal and Social Development
- Approaches to Learning
- Creative Arts
- Early Language and Literacy
- Health and Physical Education
- Mathematics
- Science
- Social Studies
Advanced Beginnings Curriculum (ABC) continues the Little Angels Daycare's mission
statement of "focusing on developing physical, emotional, social and cognitive skills
through well organized, structured curriculum designed to stimulate the children’s
own creativity, imagination and independence." The learning experiences the children
will participate in are made to keep the state’s ideals of child development and
education. ABC contains age-appropriate experiences that encourage creativity, the
use of social skills, increase language development, and supports use of personal
care skills. Each theme expands on the knowledge the children already have while
creating new experiences for them to explore. The curriculum will include newsletters
to help keep the parents and teachers communicating to increase learning experiences
outside of the classroom.
