"Where seeds of learning are planted and children grow..."



Curriculum
 
Our developmentally appropriate curriculum provides for all areas of a child’s development – social, emotional, cognitive, and physical– through an integrated and interactive approach to learning. We believe that children learn best through self- discovery (touching, feeling, experimenting, and exploring!).  Our program aligns to the Ohio State Early Learning Content Standards and Creative Curriculum. This is accomplished through the use of interest centers which focus on language, fine motor skills, math, dramatic play, art, science, computer, and gross motor activities.

Homerooms

All children are assigned to a homeroom where they will participate in the writing center, reading corner with library collection, art center and group time. They rotate with their homeroom teacher and their classmates to the common rooms.
