Curriculum
Curriculum is based on love of out doors, traditional games, and character development.
Children connect to out door activities many different ways. Daily walks, extended playground time, field trips take up very large portion of our program.
Children are envolved in traditional ways of playing by learning to play board and card games, chess, lego, house corner, and similar social activities. Seasonal introductory sessions of science, cooking, baking, poetry, yoga and similar activities are incorporated in our program. We are a no-screen time facility. The only time children can use their electronic devices if it is for homework.
Children are encouraged and taught to use active negotiation skills, in conflict resolutions, and other social situations during interactions with others. This program is created for language development of children in various social settings. Staff of Treasure Island is trained in using mentoring technics to help children rapidly develop excellent verbal skills in such social situations.
