Five Year Old Class
All of our PreK classes prepare a child for Kindergarten. We refer to the Williamson County and Franklin Special School District Kindergarten Readiness scales. Please note that children in our 5s program will be attending Kindergarten the following year.
Devotions
Each morning classes gather for a time of Devotions where children learn scripture and the Westminster Shorter Catechism through sign language and song.
Discovery
God’s creation is the subject of our Discovery Curriculum, incorporating Science, Humanities, and Bible. Our Discovery lessons are interactive and exploratory. Children explore creation through a variety of activities such as experiments, projects, and art, and learn to see God’s glory in all of it! Our 5s students study creation in context of the larger story: Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Consumation. They learn all about God’s greatest creation – man. 5s classes learn about the human body with lessons on all of our body systems, five senses, and how we are created to think and reason. We wrap up the 5s curriculum each year with a unit on the hope of Heaven. All 5s students and families participate in our capstone event: The Wedding Feast of the Lamb!

El Pueblo
El Pueblo is our dramatic play area. Our schedule is designed to incorporate a balance between direct instruction and dramatic free play. El Pueblo houses fun, interactive areas like a grocery store, home living, restaurant, work bench, and puppet theater. Children participate in fun, rotating, interactive centers that coordinate with other curriculum areas. These include a space station, entomology lab, recording studio, vet center, and apple orchard.
