“The way kids learn to make good decisions is by making decisions, not by following directions.”
— Alfie Kohn, Unconditional Parenting
Play-Based Learning with Early Language Exposure
We encourage creativity and inventiveness through play-based learning. We believe children learn by doing and therefore develop confidence and self-reliance through this process. We teach children to problem solve, to take risks through exploration, and to understand emotions and empathy for others. We do this by providing lessons to explore self-awareness and self-empowerment and by introducing new information and new ideas, so that the child continues building knowledge within him/herself.
Our daily lessons are taught in both English and Spanish. Students become language learners by exposing them to a broad vocabulary through songs, books, circle time and language games. Language teachers are fluent in both Spanish and English.
