Collective Play Ground

Classes for caregivers and their little ones to learn + play together

From Montessori Loose Parts to Music Spanish Immersion to an Intro to School Program, check out our classes below

 

All classes are designed to serve the needs of all learners. Our teachers are prepared to welcome children with special needs receiving any and all services including speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and special education supports.

As a Montessori program, an underlying focus of our Collective Play Ground program is respect for self; space and materials; and community. Children develop a work cycle practice and each class supports different Montessori curricular areas:

  • Peace Curriculum, ex: Emotional Intelligence; Anti-Bias

  • Cultural Curriculum, ex. Nature; Music; Language

  • Practical Life Curriculum, ex. Care of Environment; Control of Movement

  • Sensorial Curriculum, ex. Refining the Senses

  • Literacy Curriculum, ex. Oral + Auditory work

Through dramatic play children will explore their understanding of the world around them, how they relate to it, and how they express themselves.
