HOW CHILDREN BENEFIT |
| Multi-sensory, teacher-guided explorations of everyday surroundings |
 |
Math and Science concepts are directly linked to children’s daily experiences, as the curricular activities change with the seasons.
Teacher guidance ensures that inquiries are effective. |
Emphasis on thinking,
language development,
and the application of Math and Science |
 |
Children engage in asking questions, making observations and predictions, applying math and science skills, collecting and analyzing evidence, drawing conclusions, and communicating their findings.
Language is intentionally cultivated throughout. |
| Anchored in children’s literature |
 |
Literacy skills are enhanced as children’s literature helps build understandings and provide context. |
| Creative extensions throughout the day |
 |
Children have repeated opportunities to employ their emerging skills, and to cement their understandings, across a wide array of cross-curricular and play activities. |
