We, at GCC Preschool, embrace the Age Appropriate/Teacher Directed philosophy of education. We recognize that a childs growth is made up of a series of predictable and universal stages as well as each having their individual timing as they are all uniquely designed and created by God. In light of this, we attempt to provide a classroom environment in which the children can explore, experiment, discover, and practice their abilities and skills as well as to encourage them to stretch their boundaries and discover new areas of learning.
Our teacher directed program allows the teacher to plan and set goals for her class based on individual and class assessment and the understanding of the developmental stages of children. The teacher establishes an active, fun, and stimulating classroom environment using a variety of methods and techniques to allow the children to experience hands on learning. We believe children learn best when they are involved in the experience and when they participate using their five senses. We believe a teachers God-given responsibility is to guide, model, disciple, and impart information permeated with Christ’s love to help “train up a child in the way they should go.”
