Learning Together Preschool Learn ~ Grow ~ Thrive
Educational Philosophy
We believe one of the greatest gifts we can give to a child is a love of learning.
We at Learning Together Preschool will provide a blend of teacher-directed academic activities and play-based learning activities guided by the child’s interests.
The scaffold of our academic curriculum is based on the Oregon Early Childhood Foundation Standards, and our method of teaching the standards is through fun hands-on activities that will support your child in entering kindergarten smoothly and with confidence.
At Learning Together Preschool we believe in balancing teaching academics and respecting the interests of your child. What does your child love? What excites him or her? Are there countless questions about a particular topic? From you, and your child’s input, and our observations, we’ll create individual activities that will stimulate learning in the child’s area of interest. We’ll take the process of learning as far as he/she is willing and wants to go.
Yes, our journey together will provide structured learning to prepare your child to be the best that he/she can be for kindergarten and simultaneously our journey together will be traveling uncharted territory where we’ll observe, listen, and follow where and what your child loves, wants to do, and hungers to learn. There is where we’ll meet, and as life-long teachers, we’ll create exciting materials offering new opportunities for your child to grow into more and more of who she or he is.
We believe we are all teachers and we are “Learning Together.”
