ABEKA curriculum is used for Phonics and Math. This is a tentative schedule for each day. In the beginning of the school term the times are adjusted according to the children’s attention spans and ages. As the year progresses, less time is spent in pre-session activities and social interaction, and more time is dedicated to working with circle time or in small groups involved in academic pursuits. This schedule is for both classes, but the time allotments are adjusted differently for each class and change as the children grow and mature.
