Preschool Creative Curriculum
Beginning the Year
Children will begin the school year by learning about their daily schedules and classroom routines, get to know their new friends, and explore their school.
Highlighted activities:
Exercise
Our bodies are made to move. They wiggle, stretch, bend, jump, bounce, and climb. Moving makes children feel capable and confident, releases tension, and builds strong bodies and minds. This study offers opportunities for children to explore many types of exercise, learn about the mechanics of movement, learn about nutrition, and explore the connection between exercise and healthy bones and muscles.
Highlighted activities:
Clothing
Children are interested in clothing from a very young age and by the time they are in preschool, they have developed distinct clothing preferences-colors, fabrics, and styles. In this study, children will learn about different types of clothing, explore a variety of fabrics, learn about the process of making and selling clothes, and understand how clothing has changed over times.
Highlighted activities:
Tubes and Tunnels
Tubes and tunnels are all around us, and children use them all the time in practical and playful ways. They may squeeze toothpaste on their toothbrush from a tube, drink from a straw, or crawl through a tube in the gym. This study allows children the opportunity to explore tubes by identifying their features, making sounds with and creating with tubes, and learning about how they are used for work and play.
Highlighted activities:
Water
Children are naturally attracted to water. They want to explore different ways of interacting with water, whether it鈥檚 washing their hands or jumping in puddles. Water is essential for life. In this study, children will explore the importance of water, how water changes, and learn about how water helps people and the environment.
Highlighted activities:
Gardening
From digging and planting to watering and caring for plants, gardening offers children to explore in an enjoyable medium鈥攄irt! Planning a garden, planting the seeds, and tending to the plants requires a wide variety of skills from all the domains of development. In this study, children will learn about seeds and grow a garden. In addition, they will learn about healthy eating habits and how to grow fruits/vegetables to prepare healthy meals and snacks.
Highlighted activities:
Summer Camp
During summer camp, children will engage in project-based activities that help them learn, grow, and most importantly have fun!
Social-Emotional Curriculum 鈥 Second Step
Second Step is a social-emotional curriculum that we use with our preschool and school age students. Social and emotional learning (SEL) is a developmental process that helps children learn skills to support healthy development and relationships. Research shows that SEL not only improves academic achievement by an average of 11%, but it also increases prosocial behaviors (such as kindness, sharing, and empathy), improves student attitudes toward school, and reduces depression and stress among students.
