2025 Preschool Information Night Recording

The Curriculum:

 The curriculum is based on the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks: Guidelines for Preschool Curriculum Experiences and Open the World to Learning (OWL) published by Pearson which is a comprehensive curriculum that covers all domains of learning. The program consists of both active and quiet play in individual, small group and large groups where teachers encourage activities and interactions that will enhance learning. Teachers assess children through observation and formal/informal assessment methods in order to individualize and expand curriculum to meet individual needs and interests.  Teachers encourage parental input in getting to know children's unique needs and learning styles.

Typical Daily Schedule:

A typical day includes free play, center work, art, sensory play, books, games, puzzles, outdoor play, music, movement activities, cooking activities, and computers. Teachers set up the environment to enhance and enrich all active learning experiences.
