OUR PRINCIPLES
THE FINE ARTS
Incorporating fine arts into early education is not just beneficial; it's fundamental for the holistic development of young learners. Fine arts, encompassing music, dance, theater, and visual arts, provide rich and diverse avenues for creative expression and exploration. These disciplines offer more than just skill development they open doors to new ways of seeing and understanding the world.
Our approach ensures that children not only appreciate and enjoy artistic expressions but also actively engage in them. Through this active participation, they learn to express their emotions, experiences, and ideas in ways words cannot always capture.
We firmly believe in the transformative power of the fine arts. They do more than enrich children's educational experiences; they cultivate sensitivity, compassion, and creativity. By fostering these qualities from an early age, we are not just educating students; we are shaping empathetic, innovative, and well-rounded individuals.
PERSONALIZED APPROACH
At Pequeña Escuela, we celebrate individual differences. Our personalized approach recognizes that each child has their own pace and way of learning, acknowledging that every child is a unique individual with their own interests, strengths, needs, and learning goals.
We start with the premise that all children have different talents that we must discover, strengthen, and cultivate.
PLAY AND MOVEMENT
Play as the language of the child is a powerful metaphor that captures the essence of how children use play as their primary means of communicating and understanding the world around them before they can fully express themselves through verbal language. This idea underscores the importance of play in child development, recognizing that through play, children not only have fun but also engage in a complex process of learning and expression.
