School Notes
At Field of Dreams, we use an approach to teaching and learning
that focuses on the natural development of the
child.Learning will be child-directed, this is based on
the philosophy that learning must make sense to the child in order
for it to be effective and meaningful.The teachers will
listen to and respect the thoughts and ideas of the children to
develop lessons that are interesting and meaningful. Senses play a
large part in a child`s learning and will be utilized frequently to
provoke naturally inspired learning.The teachers will
focus a majority of their time on teaching the children colors,
numbers, letters, and other academic skills in preparation for
kindergarten. This will be done in a way that makes sense to the
child and coincides with their natural development.
