Parents' Comments on Individualized Teaching

Parent #1
I love both my child's teachers at the Church of the Redeemer. My child is in the Explorer group, which is for the older children. They are terrific when I drop my daughter off, and always let me know how the day went. I look forward to seeing these teachers every day!

Parent #2
There is a wonderful music teacher who also teaches Spanish and has given my children a wonderful grounding in both. Every day the kids take a walk in the neighborhood exploring on their way. I love this level of freedom in the school.

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?

What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?

Get large plastic buckets (or sand buckets if you have lots of really little toys )in a variety of solid colors (red, blue, yellow, green, pink). Ask your child to clean up his/her toys by putting the toys in the bucket corresponding to the color bucket. Great for teaching personal responsibility, color identification, and sorting.
