Christ-Centered Focus
MCS EE uses ASCI Bible Curriculum to provide effective, stimulating, and wonderfully engaging Bible lessons to the students on a daily basis. The thematic strands that flow through the curriculum begin to build a foundation in the following: ● God tells us His great story in the Bible ● God’s Word is truth ● The great story is the gospel of Jesus Christ and our need of saving faith through Him. ● Knowledge, wisdom and understanding come from a life grounded in the Scriptures. ● Becoming a spiritually formed disciple of Jesus is impossible without knowing God’s Word. ● Developing a vital and authentic Christian worldview requires study, worship and practice.
We teach the Bible in order to provide children with a knowledge of God in a developmentally appropriate manner. Students are given an overview of the Bible, with an emphasis on God’s attributes, biblical characters, and what it means to know Jesus Christ and live for Him. Each day the class will focus on a memory verse, worship, and a Bible story during group time. The Bible story and themes are also integrated into other learning areas in the classroom, such as science, math, music and movement, writing, literacy, dramatic play, and motor-skill development.
Social Emotional Development
Conscious Discipline is a key component MCS EE uses to provide the social-emotional development needed for Kindergarten readiness. Conscious Discipline is a comprehensive classroom management and social emotional program that creates learning environments where children will know “Yes, I am safe” and “Yes, I am loved.” From this foundation of safety and caring, children begin learning how to solve conflicts, manage their emotions, and take responsibility for their actions. Social and emotional learning can help children build resilience so they can adapt, grow, and be prepared to handle whatever comes their way in life. Frog Street incorporates “Conscious Discipline in Action” tips and classroom management strategies throughout the classroom instruction.
