Children are active learners and gain knowledge through interactions with their environment.
A wealth of materials, all clearly labeled with words and images, are within easy reach of the children. Schedules are relatively consistent from day to day so children know what to expect. During this time, children plan their activities for the work period, do the activity, then review what they have done. The teaching Staff complete daily child observations and collect work samples to develop lesson plans that focus on each child's needs. This assessment information is shared with parents at confrerences and home visits.
