Areas of Development:

Toddlers learn best in the context of relationships within small groups. In toddler classrooms, our small groups allow very young children to make connections, relationships, and learn to understand other children.

As toddlers strive for independence, our educators create a program that supports each child’s individuality.  The important learning outcomes in our toddler program are language development, socialization, self-help skills, and the development of fine motor and eye/hand coordination.

Language development is promoted throughout daily conversation with educators, using labels or through repetition of their emerging vocabulary. This all contributes to toddlers becoming confident learners.

Areas of Development

Two year old children examine everything they see, hear, feel and observe in an attempt to make sense of the world around them. In our preschool programs, our educators interact, observe and interpret the interests of preschool children to encourage further discoveries by planning activities and investigations that expand your child’s learning.

Our preschool program offers foundational skills in a progressive and fun environment. The preschool program focuses on structure and developing autonomy, with an emphasis on cognitive learning; including number and letter recognition introduced through puzzles, games and our pre-literacy reading and writing program.

Our preschool program provides a foundation for developing greater independence, problem-solving, integrating new concepts into their world view and incorporates elements to promote sharing and mutual respect. Our trained educators help children to understand routines, which simultaneously allows them to feel competent and confident in their current preschool classrooms and prepares them for kindergarten.

Reading and Writing

Our reading and writing program stimulate children to learn the alphabet, while significantly improving their Phonological awareness. The program is designed on the principles of multi-sensory learning and consists of four main styles of learning: visual (looking at the letter), auditory (listening to the letter sound), kinesthetic (sky writing the letter), and tactile (printing the letter on a sensory tray like sandpaper).  The program is based on thorough early educational research on phonics instruction and phonological awareness skills.
