The curriculum focuses on creating a well-rounded educational experience that encourages curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking. It emphasizes hands-on learning, using engaging activities and experiences to introduce children to key concepts in literacy, math, science, and social studies.
 

The goal is to foster a love of learning in children, while also helping them develop the skills they need to succeed in later grades.In literacy, the curriculum emphasizes phonemic awareness, letter recognition, and early reading skills.
 

Through interactive activities such as songs, storytelling, and letter games, children begin to build the necessary skills for reading and writing. In math, the program focuses on basic number concepts, shapes, patterns, and measurement.
 

The curriculum uses a hands-on approach with manipulatives and real-world applications to help children develop a solid understanding of mathematical concepts.
 

Science and social studies are also integral parts of the Calvert Pre-K curriculum. In science, children explore the natural world through observation and experimentation, learning about topics such as plants, animals, weather, and the seasons. In social studies, children begin to understand the concept of community, the roles of different people in society, and the importance of working together.
 

Through these subjects, the curriculum encourages young learners to ask questions, think critically, and develop a sense of wonder about the world around them.Additionally, the Calvert Pre-K curriculum places a strong emphasis on social and emotional development.
 

Children are encouraged to practice self-regulation, empathy, and cooperation through group activities, role-playing, and discussions. This holistic approach helps children build the emotional intelligence they need to navigate social interactions and build positive relationships with their peers and teachers.
