Philosophy:
Our preschool philosophy is to teach and learn through play. This gives children the opportunity to comfortably thrive and grow at a developmentally appropriate level. In this program students develop social skills, work on self-esteem, responsibility, and explore and discover new concepts . We believe in giving children the time they need to function as independently and creatively as possible. Students are encouraged to experiment and try new things on their own. The teacher will guide the students by introducing new subjects and ideas to experience and learn.
Curriculum:
The class curriculum revolves around themes. Each theme is taught for one to two weeks. Students learn Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Math, Art, Drama, and Music. Each month we learn new letters and develop phonemic awareness. The curriculum will be taught through teacher-guided activities and hands-on Learning Centers. Students work in small groups at each center. This enhances social skills, language development, and creates a working classroom community.
