A child who makes up a story about a sad cloud is actually training empathy. A kid who builds a tower from whatever he can find understands the basic laws of physics and engineering, and learns to solve problems through trial and error. Imagination is not an escape from reality. It is a creative restructuring, the foundation on which all future innovations, discoveries, and happy relationships will be built.
The role of an adult in this process is not to be a strict teacher trying to teach the “correct” language as quickly as possible. Our role is to become a caring translator and wise guide. We At the My Horizons Lyceum, we build a safe space every day, a warm, friendly atmosphere, where every idea, even the strangest, is met with curiosity.
Educational philosophy and key areas of development
The mission of the “My Horizons” preschool educational institution is to educate a holistic personality based on Christian values, with solid knowledge and a sustainable habit of learning throughout life. The educational process is built on a combination of the state program “Child” with innovative proprietary technologies, which ensures the comprehensive development of each child.
The key vectors of work are the formation of four main groups of competencies:
- Intellectual development. Creating a solid knowledge base in mathematics, literacy, natural science and the development of logical thinking.
- Socio-emotional development. Formation of emotional intelligence, empathy and effective communication skills in a team.
- Development of creativity. Stimulation of non-standard thinking, imagination and the ability to find original solutions to problem situations.
- Physical development. Strengthening health, development of large and small motor skills, formation of a culture of a healthy lifestyle.
Integrated development model: a combination of proven methods
The educational process in the kindergarten “My Horizons” is unique due to the integration of advanced international and domestic methods of early development in Khmelnytskyi. Each element of the program is aimed at achieving specific educational goals through activities that are natural and interesting for the child. Academic training is carried out in a playful way, which allows children to learn complex material easily and with pleasure.
- Teaching reading according to the Zaitsev method. Using the famous cubes with syllables allows children to quickly and without coercion master reading skills.
- Development of logical and mathematical ideas. Using the logical blocks of Dönisch and Kuysener sticks, children learn to analyze, classify, compare objects according to various characteristics.
- Project activities and STEAM elements. Children learn to work in teams on joint projects.
Developed emotional intelligence is the key to successful socialization, the ability to build friendships and resolve conflicts. The kindergarten space is filled not with ready-made toys with one function, but with so-called “free parts”, which encourage imagination and invention.
