Curriculum Focus by Class Age

 ​Wesley Station utilizes the ABC Jesus Loves Me Curriculum for all classes.  Each grade level offers a step-by-step approach that guides children  toward achieving Kindergarten-readiness. The teachers will lead a daily circle time with songs, poems, show-and-tell and an emphasis on the weather.  All students will be working toward understanding how the calendar works, reciting the days of the week and learning the months of the year.  Each year, students will engage in age-appropriate activities geared toward achieving specific goals, however, our main objective is meeting each child where they are and advancing them to the next level in understanding and knowledge. The basic curriculum goals are outlined below.

Rhymes, songs and poems will help to cement key concepts.  Students will move through a chronological order of the Bible engaging in interactive play, learning verses and finger plays to support each Bible story.

The five-year curriculum builds on concepts learned in previous levels. Students in this class will work on naming each letter of the alphabet (upper and lower cases), the phonetic sound of letters and begin working on common sight words.  Basic math sills include number recognition, counting forward and backward by ones and tens, and will be introduced to coins, time, and simple addition.  Science skills will be practiced through the process of classification, using simple tools, and weighing and measuring objects. Students will identify community helpers and the roles they play in the child’s life. They will also be introduced to identifying their own place in the world by looking at maps and globes. Bible stories will be shared, with interactive activities, memory verses and songs.  Since the children in year five will be heading to Kindergarten, a strong emphasis is placed on reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and understanding classroom rules.
