Explorers' Place

Information:

Explorers’ Place is a friendly, safe and highly -educational environment for children. The classroom is structured into areas where children can freely explore and learn from a variety of activities and materials. Areas include:

Art Corner – a place for children to hone their creativity and fine motor skills

Manipulatives Area – a place for children to learn concepts such as shapes, colors, numbers, and letters as building blocks for English, Math and Science, and foster life-long skills such as problem-solving and persistence in challenges

Reading Area– a place for children to develop pre-reading skills and explore different books and stories

Dramatic Play Area – a place for children to freely express themselves in pretend and imaginary play

Explorers’ Place is inspired by the progressive approach and follows an Integrated Thematic Curriculum.

Some key principles:

• Children learn through play, hands-on experiences and interaction.
• Children acquire skills for their holistic development. They work towards individual goals which tap their physical, cognitive and socio-emotional aspects of development.
• Children learn best when they have positive and caring relationships with their peers and adults, in a small student-teacher class ration
• Children learn discipline and a sense of order through positive practices.

Integrated Thematic Curriculum 

Weekly themes are based on the interests of young children, allowing them to learn new things through fun and meaningful contexts. Some of themes include Beach, Food, Camping and Safari.
