Temple Emeth Early Childhood Center in Denmark, ME

Preschool Description

The teachers at Temple Emeth create a warm and happy place for pre-schoolers to learn in a caring and positive atmosphere. As children bridge the gap from school to home, Temple Emeth guides them to a positive self-image while strengthening their social, emotional, cognitive and physical skills. Concrete, age-appropriate activities and experiences are planned to coincide with Jewish holidays and Jewish values. Projects stress the process rather than the product, emphasizing the accompanying sense of accomplishment and pride that comes with doing it yourself.
Based on the theory that children learn through play, classroom routines encourage active involvement and meaningful experimentation. Schedules are designed to balance structure and free choice, as well as active and relaxed periods. Recognizing that children grow at their own pace, Temple Emeth treats each child as an individual, moving them forward one step at a time. We teach a love of learning by allowing children to feel successful without pressure.
Temple Emeth values the active involvement of parents through committee and family participation. The children see their parents as important and concerned members of their school environment and parents are provided with opportunities to see their children interact with their teachers and classmates.
Nursery School classes are available for children from ages two (by November 1, 2010) through four. For even younger children there is a Mommy & Me program (18-24 Months old by September 1, 2010) and a Transitional 2s Program. The summer camp program is available for children ages two to four, as well as five year olds about to enter Kindergarten.
