Avon, CT
French American Nursery School

"Activities (in French & English) are planned to help the child's intellectual, physical, emotional and social development.
Themes and projects will be integrated in the curriculum so that learning can occur from the child's actual experience. Children learn by doing. They acquire knowledge about their world through playful interaction with objects and people. They are motivated to learn by their desire to make sense of the world. I see my role in the process as a guide. Because learning must be relevant to children, I have to provide learning information in a meaningful context.
FANS curriculum has a structured yet flexible framework enabling me to respond to each child's individual needs, interests and development. Ultimately, I wish to provide the children a fun, loving bilingual environment in which they can grow and learn about their world from two different perspectives"
