Creating a Learning Space
Creating a space where children can develop independence and social responsibility, while learning to recognize their own emotions and the emotions of others
- Children’s behavior is purposeful and directed at meeting real needs, which are to be valued and respected.
- Our staff and students value kindness, teachers model kindness and expect children to practice being kind.
- Children need opportunities to learn how to identify and express their own feelings, and also to recognize and respond to the feelings of other children.
- Children have a right to personal space, a right to be alone when they need to, and a right to choose what they want to work with and with whom they want to work. Both solitary work as well as collaborative work are necessary for cognitive and social development.
