Curriculum

At The Way PDO & Preschool, we believe in educating the whole child—spiritually, academically, emotionally, and physically. That’s why we use ABCJesusLovesMe, a research-based preschool curriculum for ages 1–5 that aligns with our vision of Christ-centered learning.

What Is ABCJesusLovesMe?

• An early childhood educational ministry equipping parents, teachers, and caregivers with intentional, faith-centered materials.
• Offers five levels of curriculum for ages 1 through 5, blending Bible, academics, and developmental learning through play.
• Lessons are age-appropriate, engaging, and holistic—covering literacy, numeracy, social skills, spiritual growth, music, rhyme, fine and gross motor development, and more.

How It’s Supported by Research and Best Practices

• Developed using educational theory with a biblical worldview.
• Built on child development benchmarks and preschool standards, with input from experienced teachers.
• Focuses on play-based learning, supporting how young children learn best—through exploration, hands-on activity, trial and error, and interaction.
• Provides clear goals and objectives for each level so learning is intentional, measurable, and adaptable to each child’s pace.

What Children Gain

With ABCJesusLovesMe, children will:

• Grow in knowledge of the Bible through age-appropriate stories, verses, songs, and activities.
• Develop early literacy skills like letter recognition, phonics, rhyming, and exposure to quality children’s literature.
• Build numeracy skills such as number recognition, counting, sorting, sequencing, shapes, and patterns.
• Strengthen fine motor skills, gross motor skills, visual perception, and self-care through play and daily life activities.
• Learn social-emotional skills including manners, self-regulation, and community awareness.

Why It Fits Our Philosophy

• We teach with purpose, not just by schedule. ABCJesusLovesMe provides structure while allowing flexibility for each child’s unique needs.
• Faith is woven throughout the curriculum, with biblical truths integrated into academics, routines, songs, and relationships.
• Teachers are equipped with guides, objectives, and support, making learning intentional and impactful.

Preparing Children for Life

Using ABCJesusLovesMe allows us to provide a preschool experience that is:

• Faith-centered
• Developmentally appropriate
• Balanced across spiritual, academic, physical, and emotional growth
• Supported by best practices in early childhood education

We believe this approach prepares children not just for kindergarten, but for a lifetime of biblical character, a love of learning, and a heart devoted to God and others. To see this curriculum in action, click the button below to schedule a personal tour.
