Class Curriculum
BJU Press’s early childhood program develops foundational knowledge and skills in Bible, math, social studies, science, handwriting, and language arts for future grades. This program, flexible for all types of learners at all stages of learning, develops the joy of learning through both teacher-guided and independent discovery-based activities. Daily themed lessons with characters teach foundational skills that are supported with music and engaging visuals. Free play at intentional learning centers encourages natural curiosity, while group activities encourage social-emotional development. Biblical worldview themes point students to a knowledge of God and His will.
