We recommend two workbooks in the PreK-4 Curriculum, but they are not essential to complete the program.
What age is this for?
This curriculum is generally for kids ages 3-5 years. We provide resources and tips to differentiate the curriculum for all children.
How long does it take to complete one day of the curriculum?
It varies by age and attention span. The program takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to complete the morning routine and academic portion of the curriculum. The time can be broken up in any way to meet the child’s needs. For instance, your child might complete the morning routine and then take a break. Then, the child might complete the letter and number of the week. The curriculum is flexible and can be completed based on the child’s needs and schedule.
What is included in the morning routines for the PreK-4 Curriculum?
In week 1-15, morning routines consist of morning work, weather, calendar, shapes, colors, and movement. In week 16-34, morning routines consist of morning work, weather, calendar, sight words, and movement. See specific bundles for a detailed explanation.
Where do I get the read aloud texts?
We suggest getting the read aloud texts from your local library. You can also use YouTube or a similar text from home. For example, if you do not have a text from the curriculum that discusses apples but you have another apple book then feel free to use the apple book from home!

Yes. The curriculum is filled with an abundance of printables and resources, but we do offer additional resources to support your child. Visit our Extras tab to find additional resources.

Yes. The curriculum can be used as a teaching resource.
I have a nanny/caregiver. Can they use the curriculum?
