At First Steps, our Three Year old classroom is to provide a diverse and challenging environment. We recognize that children learn in different ways, therefore we teach and work with each child as a unique individual to help them become a successful lifelong learner. Each child has individualized lessons and goals that meets their basic knowledge, skills and needs.
Research-based and child-focused HighScope Curriculum is integrated into each of our classrooms. We support our students as they grow in:
- Social and Emotion Development
- Small and Large Motor Development
- Sensory Development
- Creativity and Imagination
- Language and Communication Development
- Cognition and General Knowledge
- Exploration, Discovery and Problem Solving
- Mathematical Thinking and Scientific Thinking
We include daily Bible stories and songs that share the love of Jesus with them throughout their day.
Each of our classrooms encourages parents to be an active part of their child’s care and learning. We welcome parents to observe and interact with their child in the classroom.
