1. The Green Room

Playroom for preschool and kindergarten students filled with books, toys, and other useful activities for students to hone their motor skills. This playroom allows children to engage in creative and independent play. This type of play has positive effects on the brain and on a child’s ability to learn.

Room that has computers for research purposes, and also a place to hone geography skills with the world map, globe, and other useful tools. Not only this, but it also has a planetary map to get the kids learning about our solar system at an early age. STEM teaches critical thinking and instills a passion for further learning and innovation. Furthermore, STEM encourages problem solving and exploratory learning that goes beyond the classroom. 

3. Art Room

All about creativity, with all kinds of arts and crafts materials for students to express themselves and be able to draw or write whatever comes to mind. Art can stimulate both sides of the brain increasing the capacity of memory, attention, and concentration. It can help children develop reading skills, and even do better at Math, Science, and vocabulary.

Getting children to read at an early age can help develop cognitive skills and the process of cognitive development. Reading aloud to your child can also provide them with background knowledge of the world which helps them make sense of what their hear, see, and read.

6. Dance Studio

Recently renovated dance floor with a large space for gym activities, physical education, and other things like meditation or yoga. On average, public health officials recommend that children should be getting a minimum of 1 hour of daily activity to promote healthy active living for growth and development.
