Dream Care Learning Center’s Curriculum

Children’s joy and happiness is a big part of their learning. At Dream Care Learning Center, we encourage them to have fun as a part of their education, with child-led activities that are adapted to their unique abilities and interests!

Inspired by Experience Curriculum, which blends hands-on learning with rich thematic studies, our teachers guide children through purposeful play and discovery. Each child is supported in creating meaningful learning experiences that spark curiosity, nurture creativity, and grow with their unique interests and developmental stage.

Our curriculum also emphasizes the importance of relationships between teachers, children, and parents, and focuses on teaching children to think, reason, and problem-solve independently.

Developmentally Appropriate Practices

We believe that it is important to provide developmentally appropriate practices throughout our center, as this is essential for positive child development. These practices ensure that children's developmental needs are met and that they are receiving the best possible care.

Developmentally appropriate practices focus on the whole child and include activities and interactions that are tailored to their unique age, interests, and abilities. They also focus on helping children develop social and emotional skills, language and literacy skills, problem-solving skills, and physical skills. Implementing these practices will not only promote children's growth and development, but it can have a positive impact on their learning and well-being.

STEM-Technology

STEM-Technology can be a great asset in the development of children, helping to foster their creativity and problem-solving skills, as well as increase their knowledge in areas like mathematics, engineering, and computer science.

STEM-Technology has also been shown to help children develop critical thinking and improve their communication skills, as well as build their confidence in their abilities. Additionally, these activities can help them better understand the consequences of their decisions, develop a better understanding of the world around them, and ultimately help them reach their full potential.

Character-Building Education

Character-building education is an approach to child care that focuses on helping students develop strong moral character, respectful behavior, integrity, and essential life skills.

Based on the belief that a strong character will help students become successful and responsible members of society, this approach involves teaching students about important values and life lessons such as respect, honesty, responsibility, and self-discipline. It also encourages students to take initiative, think critically, and make positive contributions to their community.

Character-building education is an important part of a comprehensive educational experience and can help students become more successful in their academic and personal lives!

Weekly Themes

At Dream Care Learning Center, we use weekly themes to bring learning to life! Our themes give children a meaningful context for exploring new ideas, making connections, and expressing their creativity. Each theme is designed to spark curiosity while weaving together all areas of development, language, math, science, art, social-emotional skills, and more.

By rotating themes weekly, children are continuously exposed to new concepts and experiences that keep learning fresh, exciting, and engaging. Our teachers carefully adapt each theme to meet the unique needs, interests, and developmental levels of every child, ensuring that learning feels both fun and meaningful.

Experience Curriculum

Dream Care Learning Center proudly incorporates Experience Curriculum, a research-based early learning system that blends play with purposeful learning. This curriculum provides a well-rounded approach to education by offering hands-on projects, creative art, music, movement, and STEM-based activities designed to nurture the whole child.

Experience Curriculum emphasizes exploration, discovery, and relationship-building. Each month features engaging themes with daily lessons and activities that integrate language, literacy, math, science, creative expression, and social-emotional learning. These activities are designed to inspire curiosity while building the skills children need to succeed in school and life.

We believe that these elements, combined with our commitment to providing a safe, nurturing environment, create the optimal setting for children to learn and grow!
