+ Thematic Study: Social & Emotional Development
The overarching goal of the Beginners program is to help each child feel valued and to understand how to be a positive member of a community. We aim to help children learn to balance individual and community needs. The social and emotional aspect of our program permeates all that we do. Successfully navigating the social and emotional elements of school life paves the way for academic learning. Below are some of the skills that we work on throughout the year.
- Respecting self, others, and our environment
- Contributing one’s own ideas and integrating those of others in play
- Working and playing both independently and collaboratively
- Engaging in conflict resolution
- Respecting differences
- Responding flexibly to transitions and change
- Developing self-regulation skills
