| In our nursery we focus on themes. Through learning about each subject the children can learn and discover many interesting things about the world around them, Themes like the seasons of the years, Jewish festivals, the body, numbers, animals of all kinds and anything we know will interest the children. At Happy Days we focus on six areas of learning: Imaginative Play Music and Movement Early Science Construction Toys Early Math and Language Practical Life Experiences Imaginative Play - We have a kitchen corner, doctor's corner, dressing up clothes and lots of dolls - all which stimulate fantasy and role play. This helps your child develop an understanding of their world and encourages creativity. Music and Movement - A large selection of musical instruments is used to teach early music. The children learn music and participant in musical games and dance activities - all of which helps your child develop coordination. We sing in English and Hebrew. In addition we have a special Hebrew "Music Chug" weekly with a wonderful music teacher Yael who comes in and dances and sings with the kids. Early Science - Through experimenting and observations we have weekly science projects and themes, such as growing seeds, experimenting with magnets and mirrors. Construction Toys - Lots of different construction toys in the gan - cars, trucks, boats, blocks and legos - aids in coordination development and imagination. Early Math and Language - In our loving and relaxed atmosphere your child will learn numbers and language. If your child does not already know English we use specialized teaching techniques which will help them start to understand English around six weeks after starting gan. As the year progresses the children learn letters though the use of phonetic teaching and activities, and lots of alphabet games and worksheets. We also have a computer in the gan with a child-friendly keyboard, where English is learned thru songs and games. Practical Life Experiences - Children love to help everywhere, and we always encourage them to take an active part in the every day-to-day running of the gan as much as we can. Helping to set up the tables for meals, preparing fruit, helping to serve food, etc. is fun and education for the kids! In addition, through hands-on experience, the children are really an integral part of their gan. |
