Learning Center
Philosophy
Tiny Toes learning center is passionate and dedicated to the future of the children in our care. We strive for excellence by designing our classrooms with the best state-of-the-art technologies. Enriching their hearts and minds to music, fine arts and sports, we are making creative leaders today!
Our next step is to become a private preschool as well! Please be on the look out for more information here for further developments.
Creative Curriculum is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum led by student interest that encourages critical thinking skills through investigations and project-based learning. It’s an interdisciplinary curriculum that embeds components for different parts of your day. We
have seven main interest areas from which learning emerges. Through these topics, we can build off what children know to explore and comprehend the unknown.
•We build language and literacy skills through sounds and words, books and stories, and writ-inge
•We discover mathematical relationships through number and size, patterns, objects, and shapes.
• Connecting with music and movement.
Eating & Sleeping
Tiny Toes Learning Center is a Sponsor of the Child and Adult food Program with the Dept. of Education and serves healthy meals to all our students. Meals served here meet all nutritional requirements established by the USDA.
Tiny Toes receives assistance to serve healthy meals to your children. Good nutrition today means a stronger tomorrow!
Educational Aspect
Our teachers are concerned with children as part of the entire group and seek to foster meaningful relationships between them and their peers, the whole community, and the environment. We are implementing the use of technology, such as smart boards, at our new facility to allow for interaction during lessons. For preschool, we utilize the Creative Curriculum for Preschool that contains comprehensive explanations for this level of learning. Our after-school programs and evening sessions have a specific curriculum, as well.
