Play-Based Learning

Our classroom time is a combination of whole and small group instruction and play-based learning centers. “Play is more than fun,” according to Stuart Brown’s Ted Talk. Play is significant in the growth and development of young children, and it is the developmental process of testing their physical, intellectual, social, and emotional abilities by safely exploring everything, and engaging with the world in the widest variety of ways possible.

We provide planned play-based learning opportunities that incorporate the NAD standards, state standards,
and current child-led discoveries.

[/fusion_tab][fusion_tab title=”OUTDOOR LEARNING” icon=”fa-cloud-sun fas”]

Outdoor Learning

Caterpillars, birds, trees and leaves, oh what will we see or do today? We are excited to introduce our outdoor learning program for this academic school year. We will spend the last forty-five minutes on alternate days outside, depending on the weather exploring and in child-led discovery.

Studies have shown that when children play outdoors, it heightens and awakens their senses. Fresh air enhances children’s memory and helps them with Problem-solving skills. It also helps to boost their confidence and academic performance.
