Copernicus STEM, Language and Arts Academy | Paper Pinecone
Details
Facility Type: 
Preschool
About the Program: 
Copernicus STEM, Language and Arts Academy's philosophy relies on the incorporation of a scientific approach to learning while the child is playing. We are confident that such an approach will allow our students to equally develop multiple intelligences. The incorporation of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) practices according to the research of Lucia French, Rochel Gelman, and Kimberly Brenneman suggests that students may develop higher cognitive skills when they are exposed to a scientific discourse as early as 2 years old. The Copernicus framework is a holistic approach, based on the research of several experts in the area of early childhood education, that allows students to explore the world around them and incites their creativity, while maintaining their natural inclination to play. Teachers will promote themed activities but it is the children’s inquisitive nature, the conversations and interactions they have with the teacher and amongst themselves, that will drive and promote learning. Language is a basic skill that develops at a young age, and research on language acquisition shows that the incorporation of second languages is easier at early ages in life. At Copernicus we believe that exposing our youth to two different languages continuously (English/Spanish) while interacting with other children at similar developmental ages will promote the proper development of their mother language as well as the acquisition of a second language.
