The Versatile & Navigator Classrooms. Where active learning is encouraged. School readiness skills are the key to successful learning
In our 4 – 5yrs old programs, students are challenged in a caring and loving environment that prepares them Intellectually, Physically, Artistically, Emotionally & Socially to begin Kindergarten. Our Theme based approach in presenting our emergent curriculum helps our student mastered their Numbers, Letters, Colors, Shapes, Writing, Spelling, Math, Science, Counting, Language Development, Phonic & Reading, & Computer usage. At the end of each month, Students are Observed, Tested, and Assessed to determine their level of development, which is documented for periodical Parent Conference. The Center provides an Accelerated Learning Program (ALP) for small groups of students experiencing Early Learning Difficulties.
Our curriculum focus on fundamental skill development that will foster self-awareness, independence and positive social skills to increase their ability to participate in a group situation. This will be accomplished in a warm, safe, supportive environment with a balance of structured activities and free play (Indoor and Outdoors). Children will be introduce to art through the use of hands-on open ended crafts designed to allow for exploration and creativity.
