Lesson plans that incorporate age-appropriate activities, manipulatives and worksheets are used in our classrooms. Periodic assessments are performed on every child using ASQ, DRDP and our own assessment guides. As and when needed, we customize the lesson plans to reflect the results from the assessments.
