Children learn by doing and having fun while learning! We encourage creative play and take a hands-on approach with children and our curriculum is developed with childrens needs, interests and happiness at its core.
While part of our program is pre-planned by teachers using a NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) approved curriculum, some of our projects and daily activities are inspired by the children themselves! When given the creative tools to imagine objects relating to art, science, dramatic play and building its truly awe-inspiring what children can do.
We focus on childrens academic, social and emotional needs by keeping class sizes small and intimate. Our teachers develop a special bond with all of their students. Through recognizing and celebrating holidays and birthdays, creating music, and designing art projects, we facilitate an eclectic environment of respect and love for one another. Every child is known, challenged and appreciated.
For our older children, we enjoy simple cooking projects, experience literature and discover nature together. We begin learning to write using the proven and popular Handwriting without Tears program. We help prepare children for Kindergarten by focusing on letter recognition, language development, phonics, legible handwriting, pre-reading and math skills. French language skills are also introduced to children at ages 3 1/2 and 4.
We also focus on bringing culture and etiquette to our students. Teachers reinforce social behavior and manners in their daily curriculum.
