Curriculum

The Galaxy method

Children choose their work. Materials isolate one concept, invite the hand, and let a child check their own work — what Montessori called control of error.

HighScope methods

Children acquire knowledge best by pursuing their personal interests and goals. Students learning within HighScope settings are encouraged to make choices about materials and activities throughout the day. As they pursue their choices and plans, they explore, ask and answer questions, solve problems, and interact with classmates and teachers. In this environment, students naturally engage in key experiences that foster developmentally important skills and abilities.
