Monday - Creative Arts
In our Creative Arts classes, we delve into a diverse array of topics ranging from exploring different art forms, art mediums, elements of art, to storytelling, drama, music, and movement. Through hands-on experimentation with sounds, colors, forms, motion, and words, we offer each child ample opportunities to express their ideas and feelings, fostering creativity and nurturing their imaginative thinking skills.
Tuesday - STEM Lab
“In our STEM Lab classes, children participate in exciting and interactive STEM experiments and projects covering a broad spectrum of topics including science, engineering, arts, math, and social studies. We believe that preschool STEM education is not merely about absorbing a fixed body of knowledge, but rather about providing opportunities for children to explore, discover, cultivate creative thinking, and develop problem-solving skills.
Through hands-on exploration and experimentation, preschoolers come to understand that STEM is an integral part of their daily lives and, most importantly, that it’s incredibly fun! Additionally, we emphasize providing opportunities for little learners to create various DIY objects, fostering their self-confidence and belief that they can build anything!
Wednesday - Social-Emotional Learning
In our Social-Emotional Learning classes, we cover a diverse array of topics, including understanding feelings and emotions, improving social skills, health and safety education, and promoting life skills and character development. Through engaging and purposeful learning activities, we offer opportunities for children to cultivate various social skills. These include interacting and communicating with peers, expressing and managing emotions, developing self-help abilities, forming positive relationships with both adults and peers, and nurturing empathy and compassion towards others.
Thursday - World Languages & Cultures
Children will have the chance to learn and practice sight words, engage in real-life dialogues, and participate in storytelling exercises in both English and Spanish. Additionally, our classes foster an exploration of culture, enhancing children’s awareness and appreciation of cultural products, practices, and perspectives. This is achieved through a range of activities, including arts, games, performances, and celebratory events.
