A Land of Discovery
The Iron Mountain-Kingsford Community Schools Preschool Program provides a learning environment that is designed to stimulate children into learning and working well with others. Our program is designed to offer both flexibility and structure with teacher-directed and child-directed activities. The program is developmentally appropriate and is based on the whole child approach.
Our goal is to promote childhood development with valid, meaningful interaction. We will establish an appropriate and solid foundation for early learning and avoid too-much-too-soon strategies. We will be utilizing developmentally appropriate curriculum in the following domains: Social Emotional, Literacy, Mathematics, Physical, Cognitive, Science, Technology and Art. Our program is designed to academically prepare the children for Early Kindergarten or Kindergarten with emphasis on the needs and differences of the individual child.
Our program is called A Land of Discovery. By acknowledging each child’s ever-changing and ever-growing nature, participants are encouraged to do as much as they are developmentally ready to do. Each child is a special person with special needs, wants and preferences. Together we discover many new and exciting things.
IM-K Community Schools Preschool Program uses The Creative Curriculum for Preschool that follows the Developmentally Appropriate Practices established by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). The objectives of The Creative Curriculum assist us in planning and assessing children’s learning and in supporting the whole child.
Our focus is to create a quality environment that will facilitate learning experiences to create positive outcomes for children by having a balance of teacher-directed and child-initiated activities. The teachers will guide the children through the learning process by intentionally exposing them to experiences that support their development in the following skills: literacy, language, math, science, social studies, art, fine motor skills, and large motor skills.
We understand that children learn best when they have strong relationships of trust with those who care for them. We focus on creating environments where children feel emotionally and physically secure. We believe in looking at the individual strengths, needs, and interests of each child along with their culture, family, and community. Through positive interactions with their teachers, children develop a trusting, caring relationship allowing them to feel safe while exploring their surroundings as they become capable and confident learners.
We provide a consistent daily schedule that creates a routine which helps young children predict the sequence of events and a feeling of security. We offer multiple interest areas (block/truck, house, art, writing, library/quiet, science/discovery, sensory table, toys/games). Our classroom design helps children make their own choices, encourages them to use materials properly, and teaches them to take increasing responsibility for maintaining the classroom. We provide opportunities for active thinking and experimenting. Children can explore how things work and have hands-on experiences with the world we live in.
