The learning process stimulates the child’s mind and creates order within it. The child masters exercises concretely and then builds toward learning abstract concepts. Because of this progression, children come to truly understand the deeper concepts embedded in the curriculum.

Children learn from all areas, ranging from hands-on material to research-based reporting. Math, Language, Science, Social Studies, and Art are all an integral part of the elementary curriculum. As students move on to the next plane of development, teachers are ready with an ever-complicated and enriching curriculum. 

Through repetitive use of the material, the child achieves perfection in its use and reaches the goals for which it was designed. Thus, the child acquires independence, self-control, accuracy, mental order, enrichment of imagination, and love for work.
