Philosophy
We are dedicated to providing a safe, supportive consistent, challenging environment four young children.The environment provides emotional and social support with clearly defined cognitive learning objectives it also offer a variety of multicultural experiences that support the integrity of each child family.
Each child ‘s day has an individual rhythm, as well as a predictable flow. To support this balance , we provide a warm, nurturing setting that encourages children to learn through hands-on experimental activities.
During the age between 3 months to 6 months we teach babies most of the words around them because they learn by listening. We also read to them and sing songs. We provide some areas o the floor to promote free movements. We let them feed themselves with finger foods.
During the age between 1 year to 2 years of age repetition is the word, because they like to hear the same story or song over and over . We provide activities that promote them to walk without assistance, stack blocks to build a tower, enjoy playing with finger paints and dance. We encourage them to know the name of their families , friends and favorite toys.
During the age between 3 year to 4 years of age we use short sentences to ask and answer questions. We also teach them colors and shapes, and talk to them about similarities and differences.
Between the third and fourth birthdays, a child changes in significant ways. During this year , most children finally become potty trained. We give constant reminders to go to the bathroom.
The year before kindergarten is a time of transition. At this time the child is very interested in responsibilities . We create small jobs, such as helping to set the table organize the toy, help teach responsibility as well intellectual skills.
