Ohev
Shalom’s outstanding pre-school program is housed in a state
of the art educational facility, staffed with mature,
dedicated teachers. Our goal is to create compassionate,
intellectually aware human beings through both child-oriented
and teacher-directed instruction. A variety of class schedules
are offered, along with Early Care and Late Care Programs that
accommodate the needs of working parents. In addition, our
school regularly schedules special programs, including
Creative Movement, Music, Hebrew, Wonderful Wednesdays, weekly
Shabbat celebrations and Jewish holiday presentations.
Our
curriculum includes the “basics” such as colors and shapes,
science, pre-reading and math skills. Literature, phonics and
whole language experiences are incorporated into the program,
as well as counting, matching, and sorting skills. Jewish
values and traditions are presented in each classroom,
including themes of kindness, respect and mitzvot. Both
American and Jewish holidays are celebrated.
The
teachers utilize a variety of approaches to each theme in an
attempt to facilitate skills and knowledge. Dramatic play,
learning centers, art projects, cooking projects, music,
movement, story-telling, books and puppetry are utilized with
success. Communication and social skills are of primary
importance, so children are provided with opportunities to
work in large groups and small groups, as well as
individually.
