I hear ... I forget
I see ... I remember
I do ... I understand
Children learn through concrete experiences.
It is my life’s work to meet the Physical, Social, Educational, Emotional and Developmental needs of the children in my care.
To facilitate this process I work every day to provide them with the tools and experiences to explore their world freely. Freedom of exploration gives a child the ability to experience and understand their world as they learn through all of their senses.
If you are consistent in your interactions with children they feel safe. Children, whom live in a world that is predictable, learn to trust and have the freedom to explore and develop.
It is important to teach children how to take responsibility for their own actions. Logical consequences and constancy are keys to developing a child’s sense of responsibility.
Children who are engaged in developmentally age appropriate activities are content and thrive.
Remember, when you speak to a child with positive respectful words they will learn to use these words with others. Children become what they see and hear.
Most importantly, each child is unique. A child who is given every opportunity to explore and learn will develop into their own extraordinary individual.
