Our Curriculum
Discovery House follows four main curriculum areas throughout the school year:
Practical Life
Activities children encounter in daily living such as pouring, scooping, and buttoning — building independence and self-esteem.
Sensorial
Materials that help children understand size, volume, length, texture, temperature, weight, color, shape, and sound.
Language
Children are immersed in language daily through songs, poems, stories, discussions, and Spanish instruction.
Mathematics
Children develop foundational math skills including order, sequence, patterns, relationships, quantity, and dimension.
