What is SFLCs approach to early childhood education?
SFLC follows an emergent negotiated curriculum paradigm, where childrens interests are investigated through all the learning modes including art, literacy, science, math, communication, and play. Every child is viewed as an intelligent, interested, and discerning individual who is capable of playing a major role in the schools schedule and curriculum. Our teachers role is to observe and enhance the childrens inquiries, exploring alongside them as a fellow researcher. Parents are considered the childs first teacher. SFLC encourages all families to participate in the classroom, the school community and in any other way they can. SFLCs wholistic approach to caring for children (Inspired by the philosophy the schools of Reggio Emilia, Italy) incorporates equal attention to scholastic development (cognitive, literacy, math etc) and all social/personal development, embracing the individual qualities of each child.
