About our Curriculum:Our curriculum centers around art, music, math, science, and nature. We are academic based in a home-like setting. Our mission is to provide a variety of experiences and opportunities to learn, create, and discover the world around us. We teach basic skills of reading, writing, math, and science in a developmentally appropriate way. Our teachers challenge and reinforce each stage of development to create habits of independent thinking, a positive self-image, attitudes of social cooperation and moral responsibility. We foster an appreciation for uniqueness and differences in personalities, abilities, and appearances. Children learn by observing both teachers and other children. Our primary goal is to prepare our children to develop to their full potential as thinking, feeling human beings. Although our school appears informal, the program and environment are the result of careful planning.
We offer two Programs at New World:
*Our Toddler Tigers class: for children two to three and a half years old. This is mostly a social class where children learn to get along, share and enjoy each other. We do teach basic academics such as letter- sound recognition, number recognition and counting, and shapes and colors. Children are assessed all year round, with two reports going home mid and end of school year.
*Our Pre-Kindergarten Bears class: for children four and five and a half years old, entering Kindergarten in the fall. Children are prepared to challenge themselves in a fun relaxed atmosphere. The learn to focus, discover, and reason, often in group situations that require cooperation and problem-solving skills. Assessments are done throughout the year to track their progress, with an end of the year assessment to determine their Kindergarten readiness.
