Parents' Comments on Individualized Teaching

Parent #1
Each teacher has been different. I really like the more structured environment with teacher led curriculum---not all teachers have been this way yet my children have still learned and are happy. The art teacher is wonderful. She comes up with excellent and fun projects and works wonderfully with the children. The music teacher does a great job in getting the children excited about singing and dancing.

Parent #2
Every teacher we have had at Palm Valley has been wonderful.

Parent #3
My child's classroom teacher is very energetic and creative. When spending time in the classroom, I am always amazed by the unique and fun ways she teaches different concepts. The children love her! The music teacher truly loves her work and it shows. She always has a smile on her face! I love how she incorporates movement, instruments and concepts into the music class. The art teacher fully embraces creativity. You will never see a masterpiece identical to anyone elses. Be it painting with plungers, little cars or spray bottles, it's the creative process that's important to her.

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?

Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
