Welcome to the Two's Classroom!
24months-36months
Lead Teachers: Ms. Deedee & Ms. Nella
The crazy world of two year olds! Two’s is where we really dive into our curriculum, with a daily schedule that includes Circle Time, Music and Movement, art, creative expression, center play and outdoor play. Our two’s also enjoy the special activities with our older preschool students! You can always check out our weekly lesson plan to see what we are up to!
We use the Creative Curriculum as well as Scholastic BIG DAY as our guides starting in the Two’s room. The Creative Curriculum is based off of education theories such as Piaget, Vygotsky and Gardner. The classroom and activities are set up based on the children’s cognitive development. More than the classroom is the interactions between the children and that between the adults. These interactions help develop social-emotional skills which have been proven to significantly improve cognitive and academic development.
We also focus on language development by having a print and conversation rich environment. Teachers engage in meaningful language use with the children throughout the day. In addition, children are encouraged to make safe, teacher-guided choices to help build their confidence and independence.
Our daily activities connect to weekly themes from the Scholastic BIG DAY and offer learning experience in areas such as sensory, science, early mathematics, arts and crafts, manipulates, literacy and physical activity.
Of course we spend a lot of time focusing on a challenging activity: potty training! Potty training begins at home and we are so excited to help your child conquer this feat. With patience and love, and lots of extra clothes, together we will be out of diapers in no time.
