At the Lighthouse
Preschool, learning is more than a game.
And to succeed in learning, you need the
proper building blocks called curriculum.
That's why we use the "A Beka" curriculum
for all grades. "A Beka" is a proven
curriculum used by more Christian schools
than any other.
At the heart of "A Beka"
is an excellent phonics program used
to develop superior reading skills.
Beginning with the 2/3 year level, they
learn vowel and consonant sounds and
recognition of lower and upper case letters.
By K-4 they will learn to
blend phonic sounds, pronounce one and two
vowel words and read through as many as 10
books. In addition to writing skills
they, develop language & listening skills
that include color words, shapes, animals,
transportation, countries, community
helpers, health, safety, manners and
science. Twenty eight poems and finger
plays are committed to memory and they will
learn their numbers 1-100 and learn basic
addition facts.
The five year old
kindergarten program is outstanding
as well. Children will be reading with
amazing proficiency, developing cursive
writing skills, learning to use capital
letters and periods. Their studies
will include health and human biology and
the science of earth and space. K-5
children will learn number words, the value
of coins and dollars, telling time, using
the calendar, days of the week, addition
facts through 10, beginning subtraction,
one-step story problems and counting by
twos.

The
Lighthouse Preschool is a safe
haven where love, learning and
laughter become everyday
experiences. |
In the K-5 class, students
will study many subjects in science,
including God's plan for seeds, animals and
the seashore. They will learn about
the weather, the seasons and God's plan for
me, a health and human biology series.
Social studies will include lessons on
community helpers, children of the world,
and America, our great country. This
series will introduce the children to map
studies, famous Americans and famous places
in America.
We are sure that with the
"A Beka" curriculum, your child has one of
the essentials necessary for a
superior preschool education.
