Curriculum
Children are full of wonder and curiosity. The social and physical world invites many possibilities for stimulating creative development. Our environment is designed to stimulate children to explore and discover. We integrate the child’s cognitive, emotional, physical, and social growth. Our classrooms are carefully prepared to enhance their love for learning and to enable them to gain confidence by success. We have developed a curriculum designed to reflect these concerns by using effective learning centers.
Our program encourages parental involvement in their child’s preschool experience. Parents and teachers gain valuable insights and techniques from each other and at the same time-share their talents and interests to maintain the excellent quality of our preschool. It becomes a shared experience, which we hope will continue throughout each child’s educational experience.
The Facility
A room arrangement in a preschool setting is more than just aesthetics. At Temple Judea Preschool you will find individual classrooms for each age group that are well equipped and engagingly decorated to create a safe, fun and nurturing atmosphere. The way out classrooms are designed will affect how a child feels about themselves, how they relate to the teacher, and to other children around them. Our classrooms stimulate learning, and play.
Each of our classrooms are organized around learning centers equipped with a range of toys and materials to foster all areas of development. Specific learning centers change with our themes. Each classroom is divided into learning centers, which is designed to be age appropriate.
The children are grouped together according to when they are entering kindergarten. This gives the children and families an opportunity to grow together through the years they are at our facility.
