Educational Philosophy:
We are committed to providing a safe and Christ-centered, age-appropriate early learning environment that allows children to engage in meaningful play and real work experiences. Thomasville Learning Center's educational philosophy is based on early childhood research and identified best practices for young children. We base our approaches to learning on the following:
Optimal learning occurs in the context of safety. Creating a connected learning community establishes the sense of safety in the classroom.
Children should be provided unconditional love and be accepted, respected, and comforted regardless of behavior.
Family involvement in the child's early learning experiences maximizes the child's growth and development potential.
Curriculum supports the development of the whole child: physical, social, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual.
Children are individuals who learn at their own pace and this learning is best supported when the child is an active participant, is allowed to investigate, and provided opportunities to engage in real work.
Learning environments should provide children with opportunities to explore, discover, create and interact with others and the environment. Learning environments should also provide opportunities for communication, developing self-esteem, and self-control.
