- Develop a growing concept of the relationship of number, time, space and form.
- Have opportunities for observing and understanding the basic phenomena of weather and seasonal change.
- Be introduced to the growth cycle of plants and animals.
- Develop an awareness of music, an appreciation of sound and rhythm, and an ability to participate in some form of musical expression.
- Learn more about self and others through informal role play.
- Have opportunities for using art and craft materials and develop an increasing appreciation of form, color and texture.
- Understand that God has something to say to each person in every situation that will ever be encountered.
