Children Education Services Children Education Services We provide children with the resources they may not have at home. When younger generations thrive, they assist and inspire the rest of the family. Kindergarten Prep This program caters to immigrant and refugee children ages 3 to 5, aiming to equip them with essential skills for kindergarten readiness. Our curriculum prioritizes play-based learning focusing on teaching children language fluency, social-emotional skills, conflict resolution, recognizing emotions, empathy and problem solving. Additionally, we empathize the development of group social skills, reading, writing, and math, aligning with children's innate curiosity and eagerness to explore. We foster an environment of joy and enthusiasm, nurturing a sense of community, and intercultural understanding among both students and teachers. Online Learning Lessons Parents can utilize these lessons to assist their children in comprehending English and American culture. They can also leverage these videos to steer their young learners away from other potentially questionable online content. Remote Learning Lessons Rocky Mountain Readers (RMR) Rocky Mountain Readers program is specifically designed for primary-school-ages immigrant and refugee children who are one year or more behind their grade level in reading, this highly structured program is facilitated by a literacy expert instructor. Each cohort accommodates up to 12 children, organized into three groups. Throughout the program, participants rotate between lessons led by instructors, engaging literacy games, and a computer lab. “RMWC’s Kindergarten Prep gave my kids a quality experience in a school-like setting that was small, personable and safe. We felt welcome from the moment we first walked through RMWC’s doors. We now feel more at ease integrating into Denver Public Schools this fall." - RMWC participant parent
