Pre-schools develop a vibrant community that recognizes the value of diversity and inclusion. Firmly grounded in our Egyptian culture, whilst embracing an international perspective, our values guide our behavior in building a successful community by learning through Purposeful Play, Ethics, and Manners, Pursuing Excellence, and Celebrating Diversity.
At Metropolitan Pre-School, we recognize that Pre-kindergarten students learn about the world through play. The objects Pre-kindergarten students find on a nature walk, like feathers, rocks and leaves, might help them figure out math concepts like “big, bigger, biggest” or motivate them to visit the book corner to find out more about birds. Teachers may introduce shapes, letters, and colors, but Pre-kindergarten is about learning more than what a circle looks like. It’s where students first develop a relationship with learning.
Based on http://teachingstrategies.com/ our Play and Learn curriculum is designed to engage young learners’ natural curiosity and ignite within them an excitement for learning. Research has shown that all children learn cognitive, language, and social skills more quickly through movement and meaningful play. Metropolitan Pre-School’s Play and Learn curriculum
Integrates motor skill development with communication, socialization, and cognitive skill development. Employs a holistic model of instruction in which the child, environment, and functional tasks are integrated, not isolated, through organized play areas designed to meet a wide range of goals and objectives. Includes activities that are meaningful and relevant to young children and appropriate for all early childhood children. Recognizing that we learn about the world through our senses the classroom play areas in our Pre-kindergarten classroom at Metropolitan Pre-School offer students the opportunity to learn and develop through:
Basic senses: smell, sight, taste, and hearing
Tactile (touch)
Vestibular (movement)
Proprioception (body position
Play areas in our Pre-kindergarten classroom include:
Manipulatives that development spatial relations and manipulative hand skills, such as bead stringing, puzzles, and adapted pegboards. Gym activities that promote the development of gross motor skills and enhance the development of vestibular and proprioception, such as climbing, jumping, running, and sliding.
Pre-writing on a vertical surface to teach a more precise finger grasp with small pom-poms when erasing, such as on large, vertical whiteboards.
Cooperative Sensorimotor Activities to develop skills with colors, numbers, and spatial concepts. Games, with the goal of facilitating turn-taking, social interaction, and reinforcing learning readiness skills.
