Curricular Goals
If we want children to be successful learners, we have to teach them to think for themselves, to solve problems, and to get along with others. we must all understand
the value of play and it's role in helping the children acquire these abilities that will
ensure further academic success.
Play, and the social interaction that occurs through play, is your child's prime
educator. We place great emphasis on developing pro-social behavior among
the children. With assistance of the teacher, children learn to resolve their conflicts
verbally, share toys and materials, help others in need, and respect the rights of
others.
Helping children experience a sense of self-esteem,
once of the main factors influencing future success
is a very important goal of our school. We want the
children to feel proud of their heritage, stand up for
their rights, and demonstrate increasing
independence.
As your child develops physical skills he/she becomes
more coordinated, masters richer environment, and develops
a better self concept. Many activities are provided to enhance and refine gross
and fine motor skills. Blocks, climbing equipment, tricycles, slides, painting,
play-dough, and cutting are some of the activities that help children develop
physically.
Cognitively we want your child to acquire learning and problem solving skills and
expand logical thinking so that he/she can classify objects, recall sequences, and recognize patterns and repeat them. We are constantly expanding verbal communication skills.
The goal of Gan Dalia's academy program is to provide a safe and nurturing environment to meet the individuals needs of it's students. A strong commitment is made to respect the dignity, worth, and uniqueness of each child.
