The K3 early learning program utilizes a curriculum that is based on a theme of the month which is used as a spring board for fun learning. Through monthly themes, Mother Goose Time creatively weaves together principles of art, music, storytelling, mathematics, and science. Engaging themes allow children to play, explore and learn about different concepts. Mother Goose Time inspires children to dig deep and explore their 5 senses in new and creative ways. Each theme incorporates colors, shapes, numbers and letters of the month. The numbers 1-20 are introduced in addition to the basic sounds of the alphabet.
