U-GRO is committed to provide the highest quality early childhood education through our proprietary Blended Model curriculum. The Blended Model was conceived to provide a balanced approach to classroom learning. It provides opportunities for structured activities (teacher directed) as well as investigative (child-led) discovery. We then align our program content and goals to the Pennsylvania Learning Standards for Early Childhood.
The Blended Model curriculum is brought to life by U-GRO teachers who are positive and share a love of children. They look for teachable moments and work to capture childrens interest in all they do. By making observations throughout their planned lessons teachers discover childrens interests. This leads to investigations and the study of concepts that children are excited to explore.
The environment at U-GRO is well-planned and creative. Activities support child-choice and self-directed play small groups and circle-times with the whole group. Classes are organized developmentally and according to age which ensures that daily lesson plans are tailored to individual needs and hands-on learning fun!
