Choice Times
Children are given a choice of many activities, or they may create their own, while a teacher works to scaffold their learning and improve communition skills.
Outdoor Exploration
Weather appropriate, children go outside twice a day. If we cannot go outside, we engage in large motor time in the classroom.
Nap and Rest Time
Children rest each day for a two hours period. We make sure they are comfortable and happy during this time.
Small Group Times
Teachers lead an engaging learning time that focuses on one or more of the 30 areas of development.
Meals and Snacks
Children are given a morning and afternoon snack and children pack their own lunch. We serve fluid milk at each meal, although parents can provide a milk alternitive.
Read it Again
We use the Read it Again program through The Ohio State University to build early literacy skills and start to prepare your child for a love of reading.
Morning Meeting
Each of our classrooms come together each morning in order to build a community and work on different learning goals.
Body Care Times
We work with your child's interest and family's needs for potty training. No child is ever required to potty train at WOW. We work on self care skills during these times of day.
Music and Movement
Children develop a variety of skills while participating in our educational music and movement time.
HighScope Key Developmental Indicators
Each child at WOW is prepared for a lifetime of learning by developing over 30 areas of knowledge. Each of these areas are focused on starting at a child’s first day at WOW, starting from our smallest infants, and continuing into our school aged program.
