The curriculum is open-ended and adaptable. Children develop skills according to their own pace and timing, Each child learns without measuring themselves against other students of their own age. In this environment it is easy for the teachers to meet either the remedial or accelerated needs of individual children, and the teacher-to-student ratio is excellent.
Reading is generally taught in two to three different groups while writing is often taught to the whole class at once, with different expectations for different ages. For instance, everyone may write on the same topic, with 1st graders writing a few words or sentences and drawing a picture, while 2nd graders write a paragraph or two.
