Ironbridge Community Christian School

Our Toddler program follows a biblically sound curriculum specifically developed for twos:  Bible Quest, Toddlers and Twos.  The other preschool classes follow a guideline of very specific skills that are age-appropriate, called Core Knowledge Skills (more information about the CK Preschool Sequence Skills is available on their website, CoreKnowledge.org).  The CK skills cover a variety of skills:  motor skills, movement and coordination; social skills, autonomy and independence; work habits; language, oral language, literacy and writing; cognitive skills, mathematical reasoning, orientation in space and time, scientific reasoning, musical recognition.

Within the Core Knowledge framework the three-year olds use a theme-based monthly plan of topics ranging from "My Family" to "Our Community  Helpers" while also incorporating a Gospel Light bible curriculum.  The four-year old classrooms follow a letter of the week approach where stories, art activities and bible characters deal with the featured letter.  The Junior Kindergarten reviews what the four's classes are working on, but expands the information further to reach their developmental abilities.  Each month, the Core Knowledge Skills and Monthly Outline are posted outside the classrooms, and on this website, so that families are involved in all aspects of their child's education.
