🎯 The 6 Curriculum Blocks

Block 1: Bodies in Motion

Math + PE + Health

Lessons 1-7 →
✓ Completes PE

💡 Why It Works

Movement, counting, and body awareness are naturally connected at this age. Kids learn numbers through their bodies - counting hops, comparing jumps, sorting movements into categories.

📈 Developmental Progression

Math: Quantity/cardinality → Counting objects → Counting sequence → Comparing → Operations → Classifying
PE: Body shapes/stillness → Locomotor skills → Jumping/landing → Directions/space → Manipulatives → Protocols → Feelings/enjoyment
Health: Body awareness → Healthy habits → Safety practices → Trusted adults → Healthy/unhealthy choices → Influences → Building habits

Block 2: Shape Creators

Math + Art + Technology

Lessons 8-14 →
✓ Completes Math ✓ Completes Art

💡 Why It Works

Shapes, patterns, and creating - physical and digital. Geometry meets artistic expression. Kids build, draw, photograph, and share their shape discoveries.

📈 Developmental Progression

Math: Name shapes → 2D vs 3D → Analyze/compare → Build/draw → Compose shapes → Position words → Teen numbers
Art: Explore materials → Experiment techniques → Create environments → Explain process → Respond/interpret → Portfolio → Museum/purpose
Technology: Basic device skills → Explore apps → Create projects → Plan before creating → Persist through challenges → Share digitally

Block 3: Rhythm & Rhyme

ELA + Music + SEL

Lessons 15-22 →
✓ Completes Music

💡 Why It Works

Phonics and rhythm are siblings - syllables have beats, sounds stretch like songs. Adding SEL brings emotional expression through voice. Kids learn that their voice matters.

📈 Developmental Progression

ELA: Rhyming → Syllables → Onset-rime → Phonemes → Letter-sounds → Vowels → Print concepts → Speaking/listening
Music: Beat/rhythm exploration → Contrasts (loud/soft) → Generate ideas → Feedback/refining → Expression → Performance → Responding/evaluating
SEL: Identify emotions → Body signals → Calming strategies → Likes/strengths → Patience → Recognizing others' feelings → Appreciating differences

Block 4: Stories & Community

ELA + Social Studies + Health

Lessons 23-30 →
✓ Completes Social Studies

💡 Why It Works

Storytelling connects to the world around us - families, helpers, rules, needs. Literature introduces community while Health teaches who to trust and how to communicate.

📈 Developmental Progression

ELA: Story questions → Retelling → Informational text → Author/illustrator → Unknown words → Text types → Comparing texts → Group reading
Social Studies: Family roles → Basic needs → Rules → Symbols/traditions → Maps → Alike/different → Wants vs needs → Resources → Community helpers
Health: Trusted adults → Community helpers → Asking questions → Communication → Saying no → Decision-making → Healthy choices

Block 5: Discovery Writers

ELA + Science + Technology

Lessons 31-38 →
✓ Completes Technology

💡 Why It Works

Vocabulary through discovery - observation, investigation, and documenting learning. Writing captures what we find. Technology helps us research, collaborate, and share responsibly.

📈 Developmental Progression

ELA: Shared research → Informative writing → Narrative writing → Opinion writing → Peer feedback → Digital publishing → Vocabulary/word relationships → Spelling
Science: Living things' needs → Weather patterns → Sunlight effects → Push/pull investigation → Design solutions → Environment changes → Human impact
Technology: Find information → Explore interests → Communicate with others → Digital citizenship → Break down problems → Follow steps → Sort/organize → Collaborate globally → Privacy/breaks

Block 6: Young Engineers

Science + Health + SEL + ELA (Capstone)

Lessons 39-46 →
✓ Completes Science ✓ Completes Health ✓ Completes SEL ✓ Completes ELA

💡 Why It Works

Engineering design synthesizes everything - problem-solving meets health goals meets responsible decision-making. Students define problems, design solutions, test them, and encourage others. The year ends with kids as capable, caring problem-solvers.

📈 Developmental Progression

Science: Define problems → Sketch solutions → Build prototypes → Test designs → Compare results → Improve and iterate
Health: Pick a health goal → Understand why it matters → Identify helpers → Make a plan → Practice daily → Persist → Advocate for others
SEL: Safe/unsafe choices → Consequences → Stop and think → Kind vs unkind → Fair choices → Ask for help → Use words not hands → Rules keep us safe
