The Higher Learning Daycare Center recognizes and respects the unique diversity of all the families in which we serve. We foster a welcoming, safe, respectful and positive environment for all of our children. Our dedicated and loving faculty embraces each child’s unique personality and learning style. We strive to provide enriching activities that are multicultural, embracing curiosity, exploration and discovery on a whole. Our Creative Curriculum allows teachers to implement developmentally appropriate teaching practices into our classroom based learning.
Our goal is to create and implement a classroom where teachers can effectively teach and our children can blossom/thrive to their fullest potential!
Play: At The Higher Learning Daycare Center, we believe play is an important vehicle and exploration for learning. Play encourages creative expression and provides an opportunity to role play building their independence and communication skills.
Art: Art is a sensory exploration activity which fosters creativity, developing skills for reading and writing readiness. The children are exposed to a range of art processes, including paper exploration, painting, collage, etc. They are also introduced to the use of open-ended materials such as paint, crayons, markers, scissors, glue, and more resources. We encourage the focus to be on the process and not the end product. Each child’s art displays their own unique masterpiece!
Science: Science promotes curiosity, exploration and hands- on learning. The Higher Learning Daycare Center recognizes that children have a natural curiosity about the world around them, therefore, we embrace them learning through all 5 senses. We encourage critical thinking questions such as the 4 W’s (Who, What, Where and When) and How.
Literacy: The Higher Learning Daycare Center embraces and recognizes that a cornerstone of Early Literacy expresses an understanding that words have meaning. This idea is supported in ways that children experience tactile pleasure of holding a book and turning the page, providing them with an opportunity to independently read, with a friend or a teacher. Our children also enjoy story time which increases their language skills, fluency and attention level.
Math: Our children learn basic mathematical concepts through daily routines and inquiry. Our teachers incorporate manipulatives and other materials which support number counting, sorting, size differentiation; expand their problem solving skills, etc.
Fine/Gross Motor Skills: Within our classroom environment, children have several opportunities to develop and strengthen their motor skills. Fine Motor skill activities include building blocks, puzzles, games, etc. Gross Motor skill activities include running, jumping, throwing and catching a ball.
Music and Movement: Music and Movement is naturally incorporated into our daily routines with the children. Our children sing daily and they love learning new songs and swaying to the beat. In addition, we have musical instruments that the children enjoy exploring and creating their very own sound of
At The Higher Learning Daycare Center, we aim to provide quality and balanced care for each of our children. We seek to provide an environment that encourages and promotes a positive learning atmosphere, filled with positive interactions and fostering self- confidence, which will propel the children of becoming the best global citizens and young contributors to the community at large.
