Curriculum

The ECYC uses curriculum that provides developmentally appropriate activities and guidance. Children learn best through hands-on activities, and our lesson plans are built around play and experimental learning.
 
We believe that a child absorbs his/her concepts of God through his/her environment. A love for God, Christ, and the things God has made are stressed through appropriate activities. Curriculum is designed to help the child develop in all facets of his/her life: physical, cognitive, emotional, social and spiritual.
 
 

Curriculum:
