The Children’s House

Age range: between 3 and 6 years old

Number of students: 24 children

Accompanied by an English-speaking teacher and a French-speaking teacher.

During the first three years of a child’s life, his brain triples in size. These three founding years have a significant impact on his future life. Therefore, the environment must be rich in experiences, benevolent and respectful.

The main objectives of this class are: self-confidence, self-esteem, concentration and autonomy – “Help me do it on my own”

To make the notion of patience and sharing (learning frustration) grow in the child, a large part of the activities are individual and each material only exists in a single copy. The child has at his disposal:

these exercises in handling everyday objects in a context isolated from any other difficulty allow the child to acquire dexterity and confidence, without risking failure. These activities work on fine motor skills, concentration and adaptation to one’s environment.

concepts (large / small, long / short, smooth / rough, etc.) will be associated with sensory perceptions. The child then performs a work of discrimination, comparison, gradation. He thus develops his “mathematical thought”.

by the concrete manipulation of the material, the child can create mental images which will be his founding stones to walk towards abstraction.

these exercises are aimed initially at enriching vocabulary and diversifying expression. Then will follow jointly the learning of writing and reading.

The child freely chooses his activity. He can handle a material when it has been presented by one of the teachers. If necessary, the presentation will be repeated. The child can manipulate the material as many times as he wishes, but also take his time, think and observe. He is accompanied towards the path of autonomy.
