Children are provided with many opportunities to explore, manipulate, investigate, and discover. Programs are planned and implemented to address sequentially all phases of learning, exploration, acquisition, practice, generalization, and application. The curriculum fosters problem-solving situations that are real and relevant to the children. Child-child interactions are encouraged through the use of cooperative groups and peer tutoring.
Programs are age appropriate and meet individual needs.
Curriculum is based on sequences of growth and development for young children. Programs are responsive to individual differences. Scheduling, transitions, and group practices are reflected in the daily plan. Scheduling practices are flexible. Transitions between activities are smooth and kept to a minimum.
