WELCOME!
At Learning Beyond Paper (LBP), we recognize the indispensable role that books play in early childhood education. Books are not merely tools for reading; they are gateways to building foundational language skills, sparking imagination, and fostering a love for learning. They serve as critical instruments in developing a child’s vocabulary, comprehension, and ability to engage with the world around them.
Our Curriculum
We are dedicated to advancing early childhood education through our comprehensive curriculum designed for infants through Pre-K 4. Our focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), Early Literacy, Early Math, and the Science of Reading lays a solid foundation for social-emotional development and kindergarten readiness. We believe in the power of integrating these core areas to foster an environment of inquiry and discovery, encouraging young learners to thrive in all aspects of their development.
Understanding that teachers and caregivers are at the heart of educational success, we support educators with professional learning opportunities and a virtual instructional coach, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge to deliver exceptional educational experiences. Our curriculum, available in both English and Spanish, is designed to be equitable and affordable, making quality education accessible to all.
We also recognize the vital role of families in the educational journey. Our family resources empower parents and guardians as active partners in their children's learning, enhancing the home learning environment and reinforcing classroom concepts.
