Our Teaching Philosophy Carousel Corner Preschool and Childcare Center's curriculum is child's play. Children retain more when they're having fun, so our programs emphasize learning through play. The curriculum is flexible enough to allow for individual growth, with enough structure to promote cognitive skills and self-discipline. This flexible approach accommodates the different rates at which children develop and helps each child develop his or her own unique qualities and character. Developmentally appropriate activities are planned for each age group. Regardless of their age, a child's day is filled with a healthy mix of learning and play. Our curriculum ensures that each age group participates in daily activities that enhance the following developmental domains: Social skills - Carousel Corner Preschool and Childcare Center provides children with the environment to build self-esteem, self-control and self-awareness. Throughout their day they are given many opportunities to meet with success. Emotional support - Our caregivers truly love children. Each child is provided with affection and support from warm and caring adults. We also encourage autonomy in each child and cooperation within the classrooms. Creative and Artistic Experience - Creative expression is achieved through art, music and dance. Easel painting and listening to children's classics quickly become among the favorite activities. Physical activity - Carousel Corner Preschool and Childcare Center's unique Fit by Five program ensures that children are encouraged to move indoors and outdoors. Daily program plans also engage children in periods of active and quiet play. Mental abilities - Children need concrete experiences. Activities and materials are selected to encourage "learning by doing" With interactions that develop problem-solving skills. Health Education - As children learn about their bodies and themselves, we encourage them to assume responsibility for hand washing, toileting, and playground safety.
