Every 4-5 weeks, the Curriculum includes a review week. Since children learn through repetition, this week offers a chance to revisit past objectives, repeat favorite activities, and complete any unfinished tasks. New learning is introduced through Character Scriptures and fine and gross motor activities.

Philippians 4:11-12 (NIV) - I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.

Throughout the Basic 1 Year Curriculum, one of the fine motor skills involves stacking 1" blocks. These smaller blocks are more challenging for little hands and are essential for development. Begin this week by stacking two blocks and gradually work up to stacking seven blocks by the end of the curriculum or when the child reaches 24 months. As you or the child add them, count the blocks rhythmically to enhance the learning experience. Review by counting all of the blocks stacked.
Pick up a small bean bag and throw it. For added learning, place shape flashcards on the ground and encourage the child to throw the bean bag towards them. Name the shape that the bean bag lands on.
