Through thoughtful arrangement of the environment, individualized plans, and a curriculum born from the children’s interests, our highly qualified staff create weekly lesson plans that align with the Ohio Early Learning and Development Standards (OELDS). Here is a small sample of how ECEC addresses the “whole child” through the OELDS:
Children learn to take turns, express their emotions in acceptable ways, and build confidence and self-reliance
Approaches Toward Learning
Children express their curiosity and learn to be persistent
Physical Well-Being and Motor Development
Children learn about and eat healthy foods, and learn how to wash their hands, to pedal a tricycle, and to pump a swing
General Knowledge (including mathematics, science, and social studies)
Children learn the concepts of numbers, to predict and test their hypotheses, and about their community and the world around them
Language and Literacy Development
Children develop a love of reading, understand that print is words, learn the parts of a book, learn about sequence, and learn to express themselves with richer vocabularies.
