Kids Are First is a private early
childhood center. We are licensed by the Pennsylvania Department
of Education as a private academic school as well as by the
Department of Public Welfare as a childcare center.
The Kids Are First
curriculum is divided into four subject areas:
Language Arts,
Art Experience,
Science & Math and Gym &
Music.
Children move with their class through
the school with their class teacher. Each subject area is visited
for a 45 minute period and the movement from one area to the next
contributes to an overall balance. Each subject area is staffed by a
specialist for that curriculum, so the children enjoy learning from
many different teachers throughout the day. All subject areas are
unique, but are integrated with coordinated lesson plans.

Language Arts
We invite the children to listen to stories,
participate in discussions or use our computers. This
class focuses on expressive skills such as speaking and
writing along with receptive skills like reading and
listening. We also introduce the children to Spanish as
a second language. |

Art
Experience
As the Art Teacher, it is my goal to guide the
children on a journey of self expression and
appreciation of the arts. The art experience room is a
based on the principle of process not product What
that means, is that the students are encouraged to
express themselves through a variety of mediums in a
free form style. The Objective of the classroom is to
expose our children to a broad range of art materials in
a creative and fun environment, while teaching them the
correct and safe way to use the materials. While the
students are creating their artwork, they are also
developing many different skills such as fine and gross
motors, problem solving, building self esteem and
working together as a team to create group and
individual projects that are displayed throughout the
school. |

Science & Math We invite hands-on
experimentation to challenge your childs curiosity.
Children will develop a keen awareness of the world
around them while exploring physical properties, sets,
spatial relations, concepts of time, weight, volume,
shapes and measurements. |
|
 |
Gym
& Music A childs physical development is
related to cognitive development. Work on a balance
beam can improve a childs ability to read! That is why
we work with the children every day in physical
education, body awareness, dance, music appreciation
and group games. |
