Our Curriculum
 Our curriculum includes activities that are hands-on, developmentally
appropriate and frequently initiated by children. A significant part of each
morning is dedicated to free play. During this time children are encouraged to
make choices, explore, create, socialize with their peers, and learn the art of
problem-solving and negotiation. This is done with the support and facilitation
of our experienced teachers.
Every classroom has age-appropriate materials and equipment, allowing the child
to investigate math, Jewish life, science, literacy and social studies at their
own pace. Teachers provide structure, watching and listening carefully to
determine the interests of each group, and then develop activities that build on
these areas of interest.
Judaism is woven into all our activities. Our program introduces Jewish holidays
and rituals through songs, literature, play and art. Shabbat is celebrated each
Friday. An introduction is to Hebrew, a love for Israel and the teaching of
Jewish values continually strengthen the children's Jewish identity.
