Our Curriculum

At FCS, we focus our curriculum on the four main areas of child development.

Social and Emotional Development

This area of development includes a child’s self-help skills, their personal and social development, as well as their ability to understand the world in which they live. It focuses on a child’s ability to be responsible, independent, and their ability to follow rules and routines. It also includes pro-social behaviors, such as their ability to share, take turns, and what it means to be part of a community. This area is essential to a child’s well being and their success in school and in life.

Language Arts Development

This area focuses on a child’s ability to communicate and comprehend oral/written language. It also includes a child’s ability to participate in conversations; their ability to express ones self, beginning to understand the purpose of print, the knowledge of letters as symbols, and the importance of literacy. A solid foundation in language development gives children the skills they need to become successful and confident learners.

Physical Development

This area includes a child’s developing fine motor skills, gross motor skills, and their ability to express themselves through music, movement, and art activities. It includes the body’s large muscles for jumping, hopping, etc., and the coordination and dexterity of small muscles in the hands to manipulate objects such as scissors, legos, and writing tools. As children learn what their bodies can do and how to take care of them, they gain in self-confidence.

Cognitive Development

Cognitive development is the process of learning to think, reason, and the ability to make choices. The goals/objectives for this includes a child’s ability to make predictions, sort, classify, count, measure, etc. and their ability to use their imaginations. This area fosters children’s critical thinking skills and includes math/science skills.
