Curriculum

Jewish Beginnings provides a curriculum
that incorporates all areas of a child's development (physical, emotional, social and cognitive) through an integrated approach.

The curriculum emphasizes learning as an interactive process.  Teachers prepare the environment for children to learn through active exploration.

Opportunities are provided for children to choose from a variety of activities, materials and equipment with time to explore through discovery and involvement.  Adults facilitate children's engagement with materials and activities and extend children's learning by asking questions or making suggestions that stimulate children's thinking.  Children's inquiries and curiosity will often be the motivating force for curricular units, as we incorporate "emergent curriculum".
