Our Programs
​Curriculum Goals
​
The long-term goal of Plymouth House Nursery School is to help children become enthusiastic learners. Children learn best when they are encouraged to be active and creative explorers who can test new ideas and think independent thoughts. As such, our curriculum is play-based and flexible, allowing for the children's interests to lead the way. Teachers provide opportunities for the children to grow in all areas of development, including:
​
Social Development: making friends, feeling of belonging within a group.
​
Emotional Development: sense of empathy, building self-confidence, practicing
self-control
​
Cognitive Development: acquiring skills to solve problems, ask questions and
express emotions
​
Physical Development: practicing fine motor skills, and strengthening muscles and coordination through gross motor activities
​Program Options

Enrichment Programs

We provide enrichment programs in addition to our daily curriculum. These programs include music, dance, movement classes and storytelling.

We encourage parental involvement and have a Mystery Reader Program where family members can come in and surprise our students with a favorite book.
