Math & Measuring


Spatial Sense
This math concept is all about children exploring the positions of objects in space. Very young children do this often by physically exploring the space around them, sometimes even bumping into things! Over time and as the learn more language, they respond to prompts such as “The ball is under the table.” Over time, they learn to follow directions and to offer their own instructions with the spoken word.

Language Development
The development of children’s early language skills is critically important for their future academic success. Language development indicators reflect a child’s ability to understand increasingly complex language (receptive language skills), a child’s increasing proficiency when expressing ideas (expressive language skills), and a child’s growing understanding of and ability to follow appropriate social and conversational rules.
