Play is not only a source of delight for the young child, it is the basis for academic readiness. Preschool is the time for sharing stories, rhymes, and playing with language. For building with blocks and counting games. For running and singing. For asking questions–lots and lots of questions.
At our preschool, The Nest, we honor the questions of our students. We give them hundreds of languages to explore the answers and respond to what they are learning. Drawing. Movement. Painting. Sculpture. Collage. Shadow play. Drama. These are some of the many languages our students use to express their learning. Our curriculum is deeply influenced by the Reggio Emilia Approach from the Reggio Emilia region of Italy.
We call our preschool The Nest because it’s a safe and nurturing environment. Teachers focus on peace and teach students how to be a part of the community. Finally, we integrate a life of faith into everything that we do. We want children to know that God loves them and is with them at all times and in all places.
