Preeschool Program

During the first few weeks of classes, the focus is on adaptation. Gradually, established routines help the children develop trust and create a sense of security in their new environment. They learn to respect others´ turns, to share, to listen, and to express themselves. Order and good care in the handling of their own materials and of those provided by the school is emphasized. As the children acquire these good habits, they will develop a greater level of independence and security.

The children work in large or small groups or individually. While working in large groups, they learn to listen to others, to express themselves in complete sentences, and to speak out loud. The activities in small groups give them the opportunity to develop leadership ability.

In individual activities they learn to play by themselves and to develop specific skills according to their interest level.

Our teaching method follows the philosophy of “Whole Language”. We believe that language should have meaning for the child and he should be able to look it as a whole, following the natural tendency, and not as fragmented bits and pieces.

We are aware of children's´ individual differences as well as their different levels of maturity; therefore, our teaching methods are individualized to provide each child with motivating experiences.

Within the schedule, two support programs are offered through the Language Therapy Center and the Individualized Instruction Center.
