Imagine a classroom where children aren’t just memorizing facts, but instead are actively building knowledge through play and exploration. This is the essence of progressive education.
in Traditional settings, education often focuses on rote learning and teacher-centered instruction. Progressive education flips the script, placing the child at the center. Here’s how it fosters a love of learning in our youngest learners:
Learning by Doing
Think beyond worksheets and smartboards! Progressive classrooms are filled with opportunities for hands-on activities. Building block towers teaches spatial reasoning, while planting seeds sparks curiosity about science. These experiences become building blocks for knowledge, making learning engaging and relevant.
Following the Child’s Lead
Children are naturally curious. our educators tap into this curiosity by letting children’s interests guide the learning journey. Teachers act as facilitators, creating activities and projects that build upon a child’s fascination with dinosaurs or butterflies. This fosters a sense of ownership and intrinsic motivation in learning.
our focus each day is on fostering a love of learning now, in early childhood, which has been proven to set a strong foundation for lifelong success. By igniting curiosity and nurturing a child’s natural desire to explore, progressive education empowers young minds to become independent, creative thinkers.
