Curriculum & Approach

 
In our play-based approach, learning is all about hands-on exploration and creativity. Children develop important skills like problem-solving and communication through interactive experiences, setting them up for success both in and out of the classroom. 

At Early Bird Preschool, independence flourishes with child-height sinks and open access to diverse materials and toys. Children explore, create, and problem-solve on their own terms, fostering confidence and crucial life skills from the start. 

We focus on social-emotional development, helping children navigate emotions, build relationships, and communicate effectively. Through engaging activities, we foster empathy, collaboration, and a sense of belonging, setting the stage for lifelong well-being and success. 

We prioritize language and literacy development through interactive activities and rich language experiences. Our goal is to instill a love for reading, writing, and communication, setting the stage for lifelong literacy skills. 

At Early Bird Preschool, we make math fun! Through hands-on activities and games, children explore counting, shapes, and patterns, building a strong foundation for future math skills. 

With a dedicated science center and weekly science experiences during circle time, children enjoy hands-on learning adventures, sparking curiosity and fostering critical thinking. 

Physical development is critical. Children enjoy outdoor play, for example, creating obstacle courses, building gross motor skills and confidence. 

We celebrate diversity. Through books, activities, and discussions, children learn to appreciate differences and cultivate empathy. We aim to create an inclusive environment where every child feels valued and understood. 

At Early Bird Preschool, parents actively participate in setting individual goals for their children across various developmental domains. These discussions help tailor goals to address social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development, ensuring each child receives personalized support. We also encourage parent volunteering and engagement by keeping our doors open for parents to participate in classroom activities and events. 

We promote nutrition through conversations, books, and activities focused on healthy food for healthy minds. Additionally, we provide nutritious AM and PM snacks to support children's health and energy levels. 

We emphasize dental hygiene through discussions and monthly activities, promoting healthy habits that last a lifetime.
