Discover & Share tailors its curricula to what research says works for children. Discover & Share emphasizes ‘developmentally appropriate practice’, a term used by educators to denote children learning by doing, touching, using, playing and having success at an individualized pace.The curriculum is both academic and play based. The children play in learning centers (The main centers are art, music, writing, books, blocks, home living, science, manipulative – math, problem solving, fine motor skills– , computer, and sensory table.). Each week the children experience a different theme using books, songs, and art and other experiences based on the theme.
Outside the children experience sand in the sand boxes and in the warmer weather water tables. Many centers do not have sand boxes due to the expense. On rainy and/or cold days, the teachers plan activities so the children can experience gross motor activities, such as dancing, creative movement, playing musical chairs, riding outside toys inside, bouncing balloons in the air, taking walks around the center.
Kindergarten teachers have told us that our graduates are very well prepared for public schools.
