Prek Philosophy

As children progress through our program, we understand they will mature at an individual pace but through a predictable sequence of stages. In their earliest years, they benefit from concrete, hands on play that stimulates all their senses. Socially, they are beginning to notice other children and include them in their play. Emotionally, they are beginning to distinguish their feelings, control their impulses, and use language to express their needs. Intellectually, they are acquiring language, developing their attention span, and solving increasingly complex problems. Physically they are gaining strength, dexterity, and agility. As they move through our program, we tailor our curriculum and expectations to accommodate the changes in their development. We know that when we create the just right challenge for each child, he or she builds true self-esteem derived through real accomplishment.

Teachers present a variety of relevant themes to the children throughout the school year. Themes vary depending on the age and interests of the group and may include subject matter inspired by nature, social, and literary interests. Along with the themes teachers present, curriculum also extends from the questions and topics that arise in the childrens play and exploration. Teachers note childrens interests and create meaningful learning by planning activities that allow full and rich exploration of their ideas. Teachers enhance each activity through conversation and open-ended questions.
