Early Childhood Classes (Ages 3 -6)
A carefully prepared classroom environment provides opportunities for children to actively learn in a multi-aged community. Hermosa's program also recognizes the importance of first six years of life and children's self-motivation. Individualized instruction through exposure to a variety of stimulating, multi-sensory teaching materials include activities in practical life, sensory development, language, math, art, science, physical and cultural geography. Hermosa acknowledges that children love to learn, each child is unique, and that children develop at their own rate. Children are encouraged, exposed, and challenged - not pushed.
