4 Our Kids Learning Academy believes in providing hands-on, center-based activities that promote the development of emerging skills, which is why we use the Pinnacle Early Childhood Curriculum^TM, which is based on the works of Jean Piaget, Howard Gardner, and Erik Erikson. This early childhood curriculum was written by a team of 31 early childhood experts and designed to engage children in developmentally appropriate activities. Using a multi-sensory approach, Pinnacle Curriculum accommodates children with varied learning styles. Teachers benefit daily from the exposure to early childhood development knowledge through Pinnacle Curriculum. Our children delight in the interesting and interactive activities that help them develop a love for learning while they are growing, playing, and having fun!

INFANTS and TODDLERS

Pinnacle Curriculum for infants and toddlers provide activities that stimulate growth and development that can be incorporated into the routines of the day. Encouraging an atmosphere of caring, love, and hugs, Pinnacle Curriculum provides teachers with fun activities to do with little ones all day - even during the "Radical Routines" of eating and changing! Infant and toddler guides follow a weekly format, allowing teachers to choose several activities per day for each child. Lesson plans are designed for personalization, making it easy to craft the curriculum to meet each child's specific needs.

TWO-, THREE-, & FOUR-YEAR-OLDS

Pinnacle Curriculum follows a daily activity format that matches the ever-changing needs of each rapidly developing child! Each age group has a separate curriculum that is specific to their educational and emotional needs, interests, and activity level. Pinnacle Curriculum meets learning objectives that helps every child move towards their potential by providing small and large group time activities, along with 4 Our Kids Learning Academy activities.

SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN

Pinnacle Curriculum for school-age children takes into consideration the special needs of this special group. Whether they want to work on a creative art project, do homework, or just relax in the "Chill Zone," Pinnacle Curriculum assists the school-age teacher in creating a fun environment where after-schoolers want to be! Pinnacle Curriculum provides opportunities for students to interact with each other as they participate in activities that challenge their creativity in a social/recreational outlet for that after-school energy!
