Preschool & Kindergarten Curriculum
At Randolph, children learn by doing. Whether they are building a block fort, making block prints or measuring flour for a cake, they are exploring their world and learning to direct their own paths to life-long learning. Teachers are there to guide the learning process, not to present themselves as the only source of information. Cooperation and communication between the students is a significant component of their curriculum.
Throughout the day, children are encouraged to explore and investigate their world. A wonderful selection of educational materials are available to the children to assist them in their learning adventures. The teachers act as facilitators, assisting their students in their adventures and inquiries. Each year, a theme is chosen to set a direction for learning. The theme is always broad enough to encompass many disciplines as well as interests. Previous themes have included animals, the Hudson River Valley, and trains, travel, and transportation.
