General Approach to Learning

Savvy Source's Comments

Many pre-schools focus primarily on repetitive exercises and worksheets and tell parents that their child will be well prepared for kindergarten or first grade. However in these formative years young children learn through exploration, social interactions, observation, play, and discovering both on their own and through teacher lead activities. Enrichment activities including dance/movement, music and Spanish also give children other avenues for self expression. Our developmentally balanced approach combined with what you as parents teach your child forms a foundation for them to become life long learners. A journey filled with questioning instead of answering. Extracted from A Child's Reflection website
