How do you encourage interactive play?
Cooperative play is something we really appreciate. However, this requires both learning and appealing to our social instincts. The greatest method to accomplish this is to mimic what we see. As a result, our nursery teachers and educators demonstrate play and cooperation whenever possible, giving the children a feel of what it looks like. Positive reinforcement includes taking turns, acting gently, and speaking with kindness. As a result, the show will begin to ease social tensions.
What languages do you teach?
English is the primary language spoken at Learning Tree Nursery in addition we introduce Arabic daily
How do you handle Separation?
We begin with short separation intervals because children need to trust that their carer will return. This promotes trust and mutual understanding. When these small times become the norm, we increase the length of separation. A home comforter, such as a blanket, toy, or teddy bear, can frequently be helpful. It is common for a child to cry during their early period of semi-independence in kindergarten. Remember that this is a normal and healthy reaction to the love you’ve shown them thus far. We also build a plan for transitions and promotions based on their personality features.
