Links to Learning, our proprietary preschool curriculum for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years, takes advantage of a child’s readiness to learn with activities that are fun, challenging, and engaging. Links to Learning is organized into six developmental stages incorporating seven subject areas. At each stage of the preschool journey, we introduce new concepts and skills while reviewing and reinforcing existing skills.
The seven components of Links to Learning
Language & Literacy
We inspire a love of reading and language by creating a literacy-rich environment that introduces children to a wide range of stories, letters, and words.
Mathematical Thinking
Children learn the foundations of addition, subtraction, and geometry, and learn different ways to compare quantities. Activities are designed to develop reasoning and problem-solving skills.
Social-Emotional Learning
Children recognize and label emotions, while learning how they fit into their community and the larger world. Teachers use problem-solving activities to develop children’s self-help skills.
Wellness
We help children develop fine and gross motor skills through dance, games, and physical activities. Basic nutritional and safety concepts are introduced to help children make healthy choices.
Creative Expression
We expose children to various music and art concepts, through vocabulary, discussions, and hands-on activities. Children practice self-expression as they engage in imaginative play.
Scientific Exploration
Children participate in hands-on science, engineering, and technology activities, while building important life including problem solving, collaboration, communication, analytical reasoning, and investigative thinking.
Citizens of the World
We focus on social studies, diverse cultures and traditions, and world languages. Spanish is integrated throughout the day to expose children to a second language.
The Hallmarks of Links to Learning
At the heart of our Links to Learning curriculum lie five hallmarks: Social-Emotional Learning, Center-Based Learning, Literacy-Based Curriculum, Personalized Learning, and Family Communication. These key features help us foster an environment where students can explore, discover, and thrive.
We keep communication with you simple and clear, keeping you involved in your child’s learning every step of the way.
We focus on social-emotional skills along with reading and math. We help children gain confidence and independence needed for success in elementary school.

Center-Based Learning
Our classrooms have areas called “centers” where children learn in small groups. This helps them to connect with the real world and solve problems.
Literacy-Based Curriculum
We include literacy in all we do. Teachers label objects with photos and words, so children get to know them and learn to be independent.
Personalized Learning
Our teachers plan lessons to each child’s needs. We create classrooms where every child feels welcome.
Family Communication
We keep communication with you simple and clear, keeping you involved in your child’s learning every step of the way.
