At RISE, early education is intentional and results-driven.
We:
• Plan with purpose
• Assess continuously
• Deliver engaging thematic instruction
• Support all developmental domains
• Provide consistent progress reports
Through purposeful scaffolding, we guide each child toward confident growth and school readiness.
The RISE Curriculum aligns with the Massachusetts Early Learning Guidelines.
RISE Early Education Curriculum is deeply rooted in both historical tradition and modern developmental psychology, offering a rich and structured approach to early childhood education.
Focus on development: Emphasizes cognitive, social-emotional, physical, and language growth.
Play-based learning: Encourages exploration and creativity through guided and free play.
Inclusion and equity: Strong lens on accessibility and diverse learning needs.
The core principles of the Massachusetts Early Learning Guidelines are meant for educators and administrators used to:
Plan with a Purpose
Our teachers thoughtfully plan and prepare lessons each day to support meaningful learning experiences. Dedicated planning time is an essential part of the RISE curriculum, ensuring lessons are intentional and developmentally appropriate. During this time, teachers design activities that build the core skills students need as a foundation for lifelong success. By providing teachers with scheduled planning time, we ensure your child receives a high-quality educational experience—something that sets our program apart from many preschool settings where lesson planning may occur during nap time, at home, or with limited preparation.
Assess Continuously
Where a child is at terms of development is the strategic piece to a young child’s learning. Teachers assess each child. Then we plan and teach to fill in the gaps of knowledge so that each child is ready for success. The Assessments are shared with the parents and caregivers as Progress Reports two times per year, fall and spring.
Through purposeful scaffolding, we guide each child toward confident growth and school readiness and success.
Scaffolding means:
Scaffolding strategies that we use are:
Deliver Engaging Thematic Units
The RISE Early Education Curriculum was initially created by Nataliya Ivanova, the owner of RISE. It was and is created to teach core skills of early childhood for ages 3 to 5 considering two years of preschool. The skills are taught within themes which flow from one week to the next.
Children begin by learning about Starting School, Water, and followed by lessons on Living and Inanimate Objects. Each week is dependent on the knowledge from the week prior.
In the following weeks, they explore topics ranging from Farm to Vegetables, and then Wild Animals, Reptiles and Amphibians. Through these themed units, children develop an understanding of the world around them. Lessons plans may be adjusted based on the ongoing assessments and the individual needs of the students in the class.
Support all Developmental Domains
Through the thematic weeks, children learn the foundation of the developmentally appropriate skills in the following areas of development of:
Approaches to Learning,
Physical Development & Health,
Social & Emotions Development,
Scientific Thinking,
Technology,
Mathematical Thinking & Expression,
Creative Arts,
Language & Literacy.
Provide Consistent Progress Reports
Assessments in the form of a Progress Report are based on the areas of development listed above. Preschool children are assessed continuously, and parents receive a Progress Report in Fall and Spring.
I am neatly writing my best. I like to do and show my best work!
I cut the stripes from pink and purple construction paper. I then crossed the centers of the stripes and glued them together. I then cut two circles. I am a great listener as I followed the steps. I then glued a circle on the top of the glued centers and then flipped it over to glue the other center in place. I made my flower!
I am committed to this painting as I paint with a purpose. I am thinking in the moment as I paint. What a wonderful way to relax and be in tune with my heart!!
The boards are angled while they sit on my knees. I roll my car on the crinkled paper. It is a bumpy and goes half o the way down. I roll my car down on the string. It is a different texture than the one next to it. This is not smooth. It is rough and uneven and barely goes down.
Dramatic play is offered during free play time. Grab a police officer uniform or a baker's uniform. Grab a hat and boots.
Look at me! A police officer who builds with large blocks.
Knowing letters, knowing words, and putting words together is fun with my teacher! At RISE, your child is taught the RISE curriculum, which is Assessment, Plan and Teach.
I am focused. My hand is holding the red marker so that I can write my name. I am confidant and I feel like I'm learning!
Now we can water it, place it on the windowsill, and check it every day to see how it grows. We are asked, "what is the difference between and what is the same".
to increase vocabulary words within categories or themes. Children are attentive and repeat the spoken word.
Speech development of all words is expanded.
I'm making snowballs and we are building a snowman. 2 eyes and 3 buttons. We go outside when it is cold and snowy. My mom packs my hat, my mittens, and my snowpants. I wear my winter coat to school.
Outdoor play promotes physical activity, enhances motor skills, boosts the immune system, and fosters creativity and problem-solving abilities.
I chose the card for the template for me to copy. I placed the blocks to where they belonged looking at the picture to choose my next block.
Children are responsible waiting their turn.
I see the children being considerate and attuned to others. What great behavior the children are showing and what great concepts they are learning! Social & emotional skills are developing. What is their greatness? creative, friendship, respect and kindness.
Children are attentive to details.
This activity is great for fine motor skills, thinking skills, matching skills, and sorting.
Building with blocks, a pile of blocks for each child, is also for communicating with friends! Yes, a child wants what the other child has! How do we ask? How do we react when we hear YES? How do we react when we hear the word NO?
