Curriculum
The Highscope Curriculum
The HighScope Curriculum is a play-based learning approach developed in Michigan that encourages children to learn through hands-on experiences, active participation, and meaningful interactions.
At Play & Learn Children’s Place, children are encouraged to explore ideas, interact with their environment, and build skills through purposeful play. Our classrooms are carefully arranged into engaging learning areas where children can create, discover, and problem-solve independently and alongside their peers.
Teachers guide and support each child’s learning journey through observation, encouragement, and developmentally appropriate activities that nurture cognitive, social-emotional, physical, and creative growth.
Message Board
Message Board helps children begin the day together through communication, creativity, and shared learning experiences. Children participate by reading messages, drawing pictures, and practicing early literacy skills in an engaging group setting.
Large Group
Large Group activities bring together children of similar ages for collaborative learning experiences, movement activities, discussions, and shared exploration that help build social connections and classroom community.
Work Time
Work Time gives children the freedom to explore, imagine, and create through child-led play experiences. Children engage with different classroom learning areas including dramatic play, blocks, sensory activities, toys, and art. Teachers actively participate alongside children while guiding learning through observation and encouragement.
Outdoor Time
Outdoor learning is an important part of every child’s day. Our playgrounds are designed as outdoor classrooms where children can explore nature, practice large motor skills, and engage in hands-on learning experiences in an open environment.
Rest/Nap Time
Rest time allows children to relax, recharge, and support their overall wellbeing during the school day. Children are encouraged to rest comfortably while non-sleepers can participate in quiet activities such as reading, puzzles, or journaling.
