The curriculum emphasizes VALUES as part of the children's daily activities. Each month a different value is high-lighted. Role playing, games, plenty of encouragement, praise and social interaction help to teach the meaning of each value.
During the week, the children love to walk over to the "VALUES" corner. They look at the work and the example shown on how people should treat one another. The teachers strive to use special techniques, such as puppets to help children learn constructive ways of coping with tender young feelings and budding emotions. An informative pamphlet of value based activities, books, internet sites is sent home each month so that parents can continue practicing the value at home. The children are building a foundation for becoming sensitive and caring adults. |
