Classes are team-taught by excellent, qualified and caring staff.
The children move through four to five curriculum areas every AM and PM.
The thematic approach integrates all curriculum areas and invites the children to explore according to their individuality.
EQ (emotional intelligence) is taught throughout the day; social/emotional skills are as important as academics.
We have a unique building design with specialized classrooms, open space, lots of light and natural colors.
We view the child as part of his or her family by involving parents, and by extending that relationship to the family of man and the natural environment.
A variety of schedule options meets the needs of each family.
Research demonstrates that environment, including architectural, aesthetic
and natural elements, have tremendous impact on brain development, intelligence
and behavior. Therefore, Kinder Works has carefully designed
each child care center with distinctive space and light, paying particular
attention to classic as well as modern forms.
The Kinder Works building
houses specialized
classrooms for each curriculum area, and each room has unique features
such as built in structures; even the colors have been chosen through research
for optimal brain development and socialization.
The
movement from one curriculum area to another contributes to an overall balance, since
structured academic work, which focuses the children in left-brain activity,
is followed by a child-initiated independent period, with activities targeting
the right brain.
Children are carefully observed
so that each child is taught according to his or her individual
developmental level in each area.
Children move through the school in the company of their Group Teacher and
classmates, enjoying the benefits of a team of teachers, forming
an extended family of
relationships, which research shows provides the
best foundation for all types of learning.
