We believe that children learn best when they are fascinated in what they are learning. Our goal is to respond and build upon the interest of the children. By observing children's play and listening and interacting in conversations, teachers can get an understanding of what children are naturally curious and excited about. Our staff creates weekly curriculum plans that are flexible and open-ended. This allows them to follow the child's lead, introducing new and exciting activities to further their interest and discovery. Along with building social skills, problem solving skills and fostering independence, we believe this approach builds motivation and a foundation for life long learning.
