Three (3) Modes of Learning and Curriculum
Broadcast Mode
The default mode of your AILA Sit & Play. Broadcast mode plays learning
content continuously, supporting a spiraled learning approach, by providing
iterative exposure of key preschool concepts, following the scope and sequence
of the early preschool curriculum.
Learning Session Mode
When your child is ready to learn, start a Learning Session with the AILA For
Parents mobile app. The session will begin once the current video finishes.
This mode is at the heart of your child’s personalized learning experience.
Learning Sessions are stand-alone instructional units running approximately 15
minutes, designed to help build a child’s ability to pay attention. During
learning sessions, AILA assesses your toddler’s level of engagement,
determined by physical, emotional, and auditory reactions, and uses that input
to customize future sessions, delivering the right content at the right time.
Lullaby Mode
In this mode, curated content is provided for quiet time.
Key Concepts
Each day (each session) is focused on a key concept such as letters, numbers,
colors, or shapes, and each week is built around a theme. Each concept is
introduced through a song and reinforced with videos highlighting different
characters and showcasing interactive play. Daily stories expand the learning
of key concepts, social-emotional learning (SEL), and/or the theme of the
week. Each video is developed with an eye towards cultivating STEAM and the 4
Cs of the 21st Century skills in a toddler-friendly format.
AILA provides toddlers with repeated exposure to key concepts and skills,
which is not only important in terms of mastering the skills, but AILA also
takes the child’s preferences and learning styles into consideration through
its unique algorithm.
Curriculum
The AILA Sit & Play curriculum focuses on supporting literacy, numeracy, and
vocabulary skills. Integrated with this core curriculum, the interactions with
the onscreen characters also support “soft skills” such as social-emotional
skills, problem-solving skills, communication, collaboration, creativity, and
critical thinking.

Letter Awareness: All twenty-six letters of the alphabet with their
corresponding sounds, syllables, and rhymes leading to elementary phonics
patterns and sight words.
Narrative Awareness: With immersive storybooks, toddlers gain an understanding
of narrative as both fun and instructional, essential for preschool readiness.
Print Awareness: Understanding that print is read from left to right and top
to bottom and knowing that words consist of letters and that spaces appear
between words.
Numeracy Skills
Number Awareness: Recognizing and counting the numbers 1-10, and applying to
size and quantity.
Concept Awareness: Under-standing of size, shape, and
quantity as a foundation for problem-solving skills.
Vocabulary
Awareness: Key vocabulary words utilizing initial letter sounds to help
toddlers to-wards their goal of learning 1000 unique words by age three.
Soft Skills
STEAM: Colors, Shapes, Observation, and Exploration Social-Emotional Skills:
Friend-ship Skills, Managing Emotions, Problem-Solving, and Skills for
Learning.
