Our Approach
Learning a second language brings many advantages in our lifes and the best way to become fluent is by learning it in our early years. We are providing a full immersion experience so that they can learn through meaningful, real-world activities.
WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE DO IT.
We love Music
Music is a multi-sensory experience that does seem to enhance young children’s intelligence, reasoning skills, memory, and language skills. Participating in musical games or moving to music is a great way for preschoolers to “get their energy out.” Music allows learners to acquire information naturally and presents information as parts and wholes. At our extended Spanish immersion program, we’ve created a selected collection of songs that teaches children about daily themes, encouraging them to move, dance and sing along.
Creativity is always on
Creativity is not a special gift of some, it is a quality that can be nurture in everyone. Creativity helps teach cognitive skills such as mathematics and scientific thinking and is key in problem-solving. We use creative activities to promote social development, support physical, language and literacy development. Every day is filled with opportunities to explore their creative selves and we provide lots of opportunities to explore materials and pursue their ideas while using their imagination.
Role Play
Young children learn by imagining and doing. Have you ever watched your child pick up a stone and pretend it is a zooming car, or hop a Lego across the table as if it were a person or a bunny?
When your child engages in pretend (or dramatic) play, he is actively experimenting with the social and emotional roles of life. Through cooperative play, he learns how to take turns, share responsibility, and creatively problem-solve. When your child pretends to be different characters, he has the experience of “walking in someone else’s shoes,” which helps teach the important moral development skill of empathy.
Movement
“Movement is at the very center of young children’s lives. It is an important facet of all aspects of their development, whether in the motor, cognitive, or affective domains of human behavior. To deny children the opportunity to reap the many benefits of regular, vigorous physical activity is to deny them the opportunity to experience the joy of efficient movement, the health effects of movement, and a lifetime as confident, competent movers.” -Gallahue (1993).
We do not stay sited for long periods of time. We stand up to dance, play and go outdoors to exercise.
Listening and Telling Stories
Reading stories, listening to them and telling them themselves, promotes the child’s imagination. It is extremely important for Early Literacy Development as well as visual learning skills. “What Einstein was able to do was to think visually.”
Storytelling is an art that has mental, social and educational benefits on children. People of all ages love stories. Children are great fans of stories and love to listen to them. The most bulging benefit of storytelling is increased knowledge in children. They get to know about various places, practices in life, relationships etc
