AT THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE® IN RAMSEY

THE NATION’S FASTEST GROWING EARLY LEARNING ACADEMY, TO
SHOWCASE ADVANCEMENTS IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION

MAY 17, 2014 – Ramsey, NJ – As part of the nation’s fastest
growing early learning academy for children six weeks to five years old, The
Learning Experience® (TLE®) Academy of Early Education located at 160 N.
Franklin Turnpike, Ramsey NJ will host its annual “National Curriculum Day,” along
with 130 other TLE® centers nationwide, on Saturday May 17, 2014 at 9:00 AM –
11:00 AM. This unique and free open house event will give parents and children
an opportunity to not only learn about the latest advancements in early
childhood education, but will also allow them to engage first-hand in learning
activities as if they were once again back in preschool.

Featured at National Curriculum Day will be TLE®’s
proprietary L.E.A.P.® (Learning Experience Academic Program) Curriculum that
has been developed over more than 30 years by leaders in the early education
field. With a well-rounded approach to early education, TLE’s L.E.A.P.®
Curriculum offers programs that help children develop academically, socially,
cognitively and physically at their own pace. Other highlights of the
curriculum include:  

•            
L.E.A.P.® Interactive – A participatory approach to learning utilizing a
77-inch interactive, Wi-Fi connected, touch-screen whiteboards. This technology
enables broadened teaching techniques, including visuals, sound, and
connectivity to real life examples. Available at participating centers.

•            
Fun With Phonics® – An all-inclusive, phonemic-based literacy curriculum
specifically developed for 3-4 year olds. Through interactive activities and
engaging reading experiences, children are introduced to essential language
concepts in a fun and exciting way. The award-winning early reading program has
nearly 90 percent of our preschool graduates reading by the time they enter
kindergarten.

•            
Sign language – Children as young as infants are introduced to American Sign
Language (ASL) on a monthly basis at TLE®. Studies suggest that children who
learn to sign as babies outperform their peers on IQ assessments, even by as
much as 12 points. Available at participating centers.

•            
Philanthropy – Developed in partnership with Make-A-Wish®, TLE®’s
first-of-its-kind philanthropy program that teaches preschoolers the value of
selflessness and giving.

•            
Foreign Languages – The Learning Experience offers two foreign language
programs; L.E.A.P. into Spanish® and L.E.A.P. into Mandarin (Chinese). 
Both programs serve as an introduction to the languages and cultures with Tito
Toro® or Ping the Panda® characters as their guides.

•            
Manners Matter® –  Teaching children how to be respectful TLE® citizens is
an important enhancement to our curriculum, and provides an opportunity to
practice positive decision-making and build self-confidence.

“National Curriculum Day is not your typical early
educational center open-house event,” said Kerri Johnsen, Center Director at
TLE® Ramsey NJ. “Parents won’t just learn about what we teach children at our
center.  They’ll be able to really dig in and experience for themselves all
of the proprietary technologies and early educational programs we utilize at
our center to get their children started on the path to a bright future.”

Additionally, TLE® prepares children academically and
socially via innovative enrichment programs at no additional cost that teaches
children to be creative, compassionate and innovative thinkers through use of
music, math, science, dance, yoga, performing arts, and physical fitness.
Available at participating centers.
