At our school, we believe that children learn best when they’re allowed to explore and interact with their environment. We arrange our classrooms with furniture and other materials to promote active learning, independence, and cooperative play. There’s no pressure to hurry — children can take their time and select activities that interest them. Our classrooms also provide various “languages” for children to express ideas, ask questions, and learn. This includes clay, paint, dramatic play, music, and graphic art materials. They can use these materials in a safe, appropriate and independent way, teaching them how to manipulate equipment and other resources. By giving kids the chance to explore and express themselves, we create an environment where learning is truly fun.
