读写能力

“我是一个读者!”“我是个作家!"

One of the most exciting moments for a young child is when they begin to see themselves as readers. Our teachers are committed to helping children reach this milestone by providing a nurturing foundation to create strong, 自信, 还有热情的读者和作家. We fill classroom libraries with "just right" books for early readers, develop a deep understanding of students through small group work and 1:1 conferences, and celebrate student growth through share sessions and writer's celebrations. Our literacy framework encourages the development of children as active readers, 作家, 听众, 和扬声器.

随着学生获得技能和信心, we present opportunities for deeper engagement and learning across subject areas. We use the Reading and Writing Workshop model from Teachers College at Columbia University to ensure that our students are deeply engaged and building critical thinking skills in reading and writing.

Through our 儿童早期 Literacy program, students:

  • 成为终身的读者和作家
  • 培养扎实的理解能力和策略
  • 练习口语和讲故事的技巧
  • Build phonemic awareness, letter/sound knowledge, and concepts about print
  • 为了各种不同类型的目的而阅读和写作
  • Integrate literacy to enrich play and learning across subject areas


数学

“设想”数学的成功

Our early childhood math curriculum is designed to help learners move from basic conceptual understandings towards mastery of specific skills and then apply that knowledge to real-world scenarios and experiences.

我们使用enVisionMATH 2.0 as a framework which provides interactive experiences that make learning engaging and fun. Our coding curriculum is integrated into weekly math lessons as students learn the language of computer science and become creators in our digital world.

We recognize that children learn math at different paces and more effectively through different modalities as they grow. Our full-time math specialist coordinates with teachers to create learning paths that meet students where they are developmentally. While working with teachers in small groups, children gain numerical proficiency and confidence.

我们的幼儿数学课程包括:

  • Numeracy skills, addition and subtraction up to three digits with a focus on base 10 concepts
  • Enabling recognition of basic shapes and their properties
  • 加强基本测量的流畅性
  • Use of hands-on materials, digital resources, and projects for instruction
  • Placement of students in "just right" skills-based groupings beginning in 1st grade
  • Continually monitoring progress through systematic formal and informal assessments
