The ARK Academy uses Creative Curriculum, Kids of Integrity, Adventures in Learning, Adventures for Toddlers, and Connecting with Infants as a basis for our daily activities and classroom environments. These curricula provide for each area of your child’s development: social-emotional, physical, intellectual, creative- aesthetic, and language-literacy while providing opportunities for multicultural and inclusive experiences. Because young children learn best through their senses and by moving, it may not look like school to you! Teachers use play experiences to help children learn skills and concepts. We may occasionally use some screen time for children 2 years and up to enhance their learning about a particular topic. We will consider the whole, individual child in our daily activity plans and provide experiences and environments that will encourage your child to explore and discover at their own pace and according to their own interests. While each classroom will have a daily schedule of activities, all schedules are flexible and can be changed at any time by the classroom lead teacher
