At Beansprouts, we learn through INQUISITIVE PLAY!
|
Did you know the way children play impacts how they will think in the future? |
Children play with complete involvement and this attentiveness is at the heart of thinking.
Children are inwardly active and engaged so they wonder and think with a curiosity that adults can't help but admire.
At Beansprouts, we focus on fostering this love of curiosity by nurturing both sides of the brain shaping and preparing them to succeed in the future.
Preschool Learning Program: 2.9 years to 4 years
As a preschooler, your child is capable of increasingly complex tasks, learning, and thinking. Our curriculum includes theme-based units that incorporate language, pre-reading, pre-writing, math, science, social studies, creative arts, motor skills, and social development in hands-on, developmentally appropriate activities.
Intentional, research-based themed curriculum is individualized for 3’s and 4’s specific learning goals. Teachers work with our Childcare Director to plan daily, customized small-group “Center” activities so even in mixed age groupings children can learn at their developmental and age-appropriate pace. All activities are linked to the Developmentally Appropriate Practices, the Maine Early Learning Guidelines, the National Reading Panel and National Early Literacy Panel’s recommendations for early literacy.
We have two preschool education rooms with a Lead Teacher and an Assistant. Our preschoolers participate in our inclusive weekly enrichment classes including Yoga, Music, Dance, and Tumble.
