Little Treehouse focus on cultivating strong partnerships between educators, students, and families, rooted in a foundation of trust and mutual respect. We believe children learn best when their education is filled with meaning and joy. Our play-based curriculum transforms everyday activities into natural opportunities for discovery. By exploring the world around them, children build a strong foundation in reading, math, science, and the arts through hands-on experiences that are perfectly suited to their age and unique style of learning.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Our school is strongly inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach and\u00a0 some Montessori ideas. This approach to early childhood education give children a bit of control over the direction of their learning and remark the relevance of using all senses to learn and celebrate the \u00a0many ways children express themselves.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Reggio Emilia approach originated in a small village in Northen Italy is well known for\u00a0believing \u00a0that each child is naturally rich in potential, strength, and full of energy being capable of expressing and communicating their interest. Therefore, we believe that children learn by their curiosity and\u00a0intensely inquisitive mind.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

WHAT IS REGGIO EMILIA?<\/span><\/span><\/p>

\u00a0 The Reggio Emilia approach is a philosophy for early childhood education developed after World War II in the 1950\u2019s by psychologist educator Loris Malaguzzi and parents in the villages around Reggio Emilia, Italy. \u00a0A philosophy based on the following principles of respect, response and community; the Reggio Emilia is built on the premise that all children are endowed with hundred languages referring to the many ways children have of expressing themselves. The Reggio approach is flexible and is developed from children\u2019s ideas, thoughts, communication \u00a0and observations. The goal of the approach is to children develop a lifelong for learning and exploration.<\/p>

\u00a0 REGGIO EMILIA PROGRAMS<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0 Children are capable to construct their own learning.
\u00a0 Children are collaborators and learn through interaction within their communities.
\u00a0 Children are natural communicators and should be encouraged to express themselves however they feel they can.<\/p>

ROLE OF THE ENVIRONMENT – The classroom environment acts as the third teacher<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0 The classroom acts as a \u201cLiving organism, a place of shared relationships among the children, the\u00a0teachers, the parents, and a feeling of belonging is a world that is alive, welcoming and authentic\u201d. \u00a0Because the classroom acts as a living organism, it is one of the more critical components in the Reggio philosophy. Little Treehouse International School classrooms and common spaces are carefully integrated with one another, as well as with the outside community. Classrooms also use natural furnishing to encourage real-life interactions.<\/p>

ROLE OF THE TEACHER\u00a0<\/span>
-Teachers are partners, nurturers, and guides who help facilitate the exploration of children\u2019s interests as they work on short and long-term projects.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0 In the Reggio Emilia philosophy, teachers are partners in the learning process. They are expected to be the ones who guide experiences, open-ended discovery and problem solving. The main goal for the teacher is to listen and observe the children, as well as question and listen for opportunities to encourage further exploration of a child\u2019s interests. Children and teachers are expected to collaborate, but it\u2019s the response of the teacher to identify when a concept can be used to further discovery and learning. As a mentor, it also means that teachers are not planning projects or learning points in advance they\u2019re allowing projects to emerge based on the interests of the children.<\/p>

DOCUMENTATION<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0 Teachers may take photos and even videos to better understand the children and assist parents in becoming more aware of what their child is doing.\u00a0Documentation demonstrates to children that their work is of value. Through documentation, a child may finish Little Treehouse International School experience with portfolio of projects, pictures photos scripts and quotes that they make take great pride in as it represents the steps they\u2019ve made throughout their education.
<\/span>
PARENTS ARE PARTNERS \u00a0IN EDUCATION\u00a0<\/span>
<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0 We think parents should always be involved to play an active role on their child\u2019s learning experiences as well as help to ensure the welfare of the children in the community around them. Parents, both their skills\u00a0and ideas, are very valuable in Little Treehouse International School.<\/span><\/p>
