Expanded Learning Curriculum

Staff facilitate children's learning through developmentally appropriate practices that support growth through play, exploration, curriculum, daily routines, universally designed indoor and outdoor environments, and meaningful interactions with peers and teachers. Our project-based approach gives students the opportunity to explore and learn hands-on. Learning opportunities are embedded within children's daily routines and play. We also promote learning by building a sense of community within the classroom. The environment is designed to be navigable by a young child, promote independence, and allow the child to make meaningful choices within established boundaries. We encourage children to become critical thinkers by engaging in dialogue and extending learning experiences that simultaneously support multiple areas of child development. Projects and activities are developed from the children's interests, developmental needs, and abilities.
