To appropriately meet the needs of preschoolers, our
curriculum:
- Is Activity-Based
Preschoolers are active learners and must be involved in activities that
do not force all the children to do the same thing at the same time.
Learning center activities allow children to learn through experience
rather than simply listening.
- Provides Choices
Preschoolers need to be able to choose which centers to work in, what
to build with the blocks, or where to put the paint on his paper.
Teachers provide an environment filled with unit-related choices and a
child chooses what interests him.
- Allows Physical Activity Because
muscles are growing and developing, preschoolers need to be able to
move about freely. Learning activities allow children to move about as
they choose a center, work a puzzle, draw a picture, play in the home
living center, or enjoy a book.
- Encourages Creative
Expression
As a teacher develops activities related to a unit
theme, creative expression in art, writing, puzzles, music, and other
activities belong to the child. Every child is creative. He should be
allowed to express himself and experiment with his own design rather
than a teacher providing a "pattern" or assisting him with
an art activity. The experience, rather than the finished product, is
the goal. Children become confident as they use their own ideas.
- Provides Balance Since
curriculum provides a guide for the day, it should provide a balance
of activities: quiet/active, indoor/outdoor, working alone/interacting
with a group, rest/physical activity.
- Includes Beginning Group
Experiences
While younger preschoolers will only be aware of
themselves and their own activity (solitary play), they will
eventually move to parallel play, and finally to group participation.
Plans for group-time should always consider the age of the preschooler
and his short attention span.
- Is Biblically Based Each unit
should include a Bible story, Bible thoughts, and suggestions for
meaningful conversation. The same phrases and verses should be used
throughout the unit of teaching.
- Makes Learning Fun When
preschoolers are allowed to move around, express their own creativity,
and choose what interests them, they will be successful, relate
positively, and enjoy learning.
- Invites Conversation
Preschoolers learn through simple conversations about God, the world
He made, and how to treat each other.
- Provides a Flexible
Schedule Within a Familiar Routine Flexibility allows a
teacher to meet the needs of the children while helping them feel
secure in a familiar routine.
