WHAT'S THE CURRICULUM LIKE?

Educational activities, social experiences, and social interaction will be based on a Christian perspective.

 

Our program is designed to encourage:

     • Language development

     • Discovery learning

     • Social skills

     • Creativity

     • The beginning of an understanding that God loves each of us!

 

Child-initiated, child-directed, teacher-supported play is an essential component of classroom practice. The protection and enhancement of a child’s self-esteem are important to us. Discipline, when necessary, will include redirection and a brief explanation. If this proves ineffective, a short time-out will be used.
