ASE Kindergarten Philosophy
We believe that the foundation of successful schooling is laid during the kindergarten years through the development of positive attitudes and learning habits. We recognize that each child enters kindergarten with a unique background of experiences and abilities, and it is our goal to provide a nurturing and inclusive environment where they can thrive and grow. Instilling in our students a sense of wonder and curiosity, as well as helping them develop their social skills, is the core of our educational philosophy.
Early learning at ASE fosters collaboration, encourages social interaction, and promotes positive self-image by using growth mindset strategies. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where children feel empowered to take ownership of their actions and contribute to the betterment of society. The kindergarten curriculum is designed to support the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth of the child. By providing a nurturing and stimulating environment, we aim to cultivate a love for learning that will set a strong foundation for future academic success. Our primary objective is to ensure that each child reaches their full potential and develops the necessary skills to excel in their educational journey.
The teacher plays a key role in providing a variety of experiences designed to support and develop each child’s needs and learning styles. School faculty and parents working together provide for the individual development of the whole child, fostering a sense of community that enhances the educational experience. Through collaboration and communication, we strive to create a holistic approach to education that addresses the unique needs of each student.
Kindergarten curriculum is based on the premise that, as a result of the kindergarten experience, each child will be able to:
• have a sense of self-worth.
• develop a positive attitude toward learning and life.
• develop a lifelong curiosity for language and learning.
• learn independence and self-discipline.
• acquire the habits needed to become a responsible individual and a group member.
• communicate (by listening, speaking, reading, and writing) within the environment through a language experience approach.
• progress developmentally.
• process and utilize new information through problem-solving skills.
• accept responsibility for his/her own actions and accept the results.
