Educational Philosophy of the Preschool Workshop
We recognize that children are unique and learn at different rates and in different ways. We provide a diverse curriculum that is child-centered with hands-on exploration.

We create an environment that:
Provides a flexible schedule based on the children's needs.
Offers creative, unique teaching styles, with multi-age grouping.
Provides a well-rounded curriculum with an emphasis in art, language, math, music and science that promotes diversity and cultural awareness, and a well-rounded child.

We strive to teach the children:
Respect for others and a sense of caring,
Problem solving,
Prosocial skills; such as sharing and taking turns, using words and encouraging cooperative play, self-discipline and self-direction,
Risk taking skills, accepting and learning from mistakes … with the understanding that making mistakes is an important part of development,
Basic life skills that foster independence resulting in confidence and a positive self esteem.

Through:
Teacher facilitated play with the teacher as a guide as well as child-directed play opportunities,
