2K-3K Overview
Creating a safe place for your child to learn is one of the most important things we value at All Saints’. But we also recognize that safety is not just about setting up an age-appropriate, secure classroom — it’s about designing a space where your child will feel comfortable to grow physically, socially, emotionally, academically, and spiritually. What does that type of learning environment look like at All Saints’?
Creativity
Sensory tables serve as dynamic hub of activity, where our students not only engage with their peers but also have the chance to practice and refine their communication and social skills. Through collaborative play and interaction, they learn the value of teamwork, empathy, and cooperation, setting the stage for positive social development.
Furthermore, our sensory tables are a treasure trove for honing fine motor skills. As students explore various tactile materials, they refine their hand-eye coordination, dexterity, and spatial awareness. Whether it's pouring, scooping, or manipulating objects, these activities contribute to their physical development, preparing them for more complex tasks in the future.
Self-expression
Dramatic play is an integral part of our educational approach, providing a delightful and enriching space for children to explore and engage in their self-expression. It serves as a sanctuary for children to engage in role-playing, allowing them to step into different personas and scenarios. Through this process, they gain a deeper understanding of the world around them, cultivate empathy, and learn to view situations from various perspectives.
Furthermore, language skills blossom in the rich tapestry of dramatic play. Children experiment with language in various ways, from dialogues and storytelling to creating their scripts and scripts for their imaginative adventures. This multifaceted use of language nurtures their communication skills and vocabulary, preparing them for effective expression in the broader world.
Problem-solving
Learning rotations are an integral part of our educational approach. They provide a structured framework for our students to immerse themselves in a variety of educational experiences; Math, Science, Engineering, Writing, Art, Dramatic Play and Book Nook. Through these rotations, students engage actively with a range of challenges and activities that are carefully designed to foster their cognitive and problem-solving skills."
"These rotations are not just about acquiring knowledge but also about developing practical problem-solving abilities. Students learn to approach complex issues with critical thinking, creativity, and resilience. This multifaceted approach to learning equips them with the tools they need to navigate the challenges of both the classroom and the real world.
