At Play and Learn PreK
- children are encouraged to think creatively, to explore and investigate, to use their imagination, and to solve problems
- concepts of sustainability, recycling, reusing, reducing, and conservation are integrated in the daily program and routine
Toddlers and Preschoolers
Our whole child approach enables children to learn primarily through play and exploration, social interactions, and guided instruction. Children learn by doing, they need many opportunities to explore and investigate. These experiences allow children to build on their existing knowledge, create and clarify their own new understandings, and experience a variety of approaches to a problem or question. Learning should be a joyful, natural experience.
Inclusion
We believe children of all ability levels are entitled to the same opportunities for participation, acceptance and belonging in an educational setting.
Our supportive inclusive group includes typical children and children with sensory processing and/or language delays. We provide an environment that nurtures and helps to support social-emotional development, imaginative and cooperative play (i.e. turn-taking and sharing) and communication. An initial comprehensive evaluation is used to develop an individualized plan of care for therapy and educational development, and as baseline information.
Speech & Language, Occupational Therapy
We offer on site Individual and/or group Speech & Language and/or Occupational Therapy services. We work with families to plan and implement appropriate intervention strategies in order to maximize independent functioning.
