At Botsford Academy, we will pave the road to your children’s futures by developing skills that are essential to building relationships with people, learning to understand themselves, and discovering their creative minds. With a dedicated, highly qualified, and exceptionally experienced team of teachers, the Botsford Academy is a place where parents will feel confident that their children’s best interests are met, and that they will be taken care of in a warm environment allowing them to become successful individuals. At Botsford Academy, we believe in age appropriate learning. Our daily programming has been designed to challenge and stimulate each child’s level of development. We provide structured and consistent routines that offer a sense of security, and a sense of self-worth.The curriculum is organized into six areas of learning:
1. Personal, social and emotional development
2. Communication, language and literacy
3. Mathematical development
4. Knowledge and understanding of the world
5. Creative development
A big part of our program is music and art. Responding to music comes naturally to young children. Babies mimic our speech pattern when we sing or talk to them. Music helps facilitate learning, movement and communication for toddlers. Our curriculum is enhanced with world-renowned Montessori educational approach. This freedom of choice to learn is provided in a prepared environment which is stimulating and interesting to the children. This environment allows a child to satisfy his/her curiosity in his surroundings. All materials are very inviting and the child finds learning enjoyable from an early age. Children with a Montessori background are well prepared, and confident to face the ever-changing and challenging world around them.
