3. California Preschool Curriculum Framework — Developing 9 key areas for well-rounded growth

The California Preschool Curriculum Framework - developed by the California Department of Education (USA) — is one of the world’s leading comprehensive early education systems.

The program supports children’s development across 9 key areas: 

1️⃣ Social-Emotional

2️⃣ Language & Literacy

3️⃣ English Language Development

4️⃣ Mathematics

5️⃣ Visual & Performing Arts

6️⃣ Physical Development

7️⃣ Health

8️⃣ History–Social Science

9️⃣ Science

Ages 0–6 are also when children pass through sensitive periods for language, movement, order, and the senses. When these needs are truly understood and supported, skills blossom naturally and rapidly. At ME, learning is not divided into rigid subjects — it’s woven into every living moment, so children learn, play, feel, and grow in a balanced, joyful way.
