At Papakidz, you will find :
Experienced teachers
Our lead teachers have years of preschool teaching experience and know how to effectively manage their classrooms. Our teachers recognize that each child develops and learns at his own pace and therefore, curriculums are adjusted to meet the needs of the children in the class. Teachers’ styles and learning approaches vary to keep learning interesting and enjoyable
Technology integrated classroom
We provide our students with state-of-art interactive boards in classrooms to make lessons more interactive, fun and engaging for students. Children learn through the use of color, number, math and phonological awareness activities, that offer a hands-on approach with technology.
Dual-language curriculum
At Papakidz, english lessons are not simply as an “add-on” subject area, like in other preschools. Our curriculum is presented bilingually and students are gradually immersed in dual language program.
Spacious and modern facilities
Our preschool features a state-of-the-art facility with large indoor and outdoor play areas, lots of natural light and airy learning spaces. Our facilities have been carefully designed to provide optimal learning opportunities, social interactions and great experiences.
Thematic project based learning and STEAM
We use the principles of thematic project-based learning that provides a context to the subject learning, which helps students to develop their understanding of their learning. All of our curriculum is developed by us and is further adapted by our teachers for teaching mixed-aged groups, to be able to reach any learner at their own “intellectual” age. An acronym for science, technology, engineering, art and math, STEAM activities are meant to instill curiosity, and critical thinking, helping kids develop the skills needed to be successful in life.
Low ratios
We are committed to maintaining low teacher to student ratios to best meet the needs of all children. Low ratios enable teachers to better understand your child as a unique person and to adapt learning activities to meet individual needs.
Individual learning plan
Our teaching strategy takes into consideration the student’s strengths and weaknesses, based on periodic developmental screening, to tailor the learning experience for each student
Nurturing environment
Your child will be surrounded with warm, caring, and friendly teachers who understand your child’s developmental stages. Your child will feel nurtured and most importantly, respected. Before learning can occur, we believe that a child needs to feel loved, safe and confident in their learning environment.
