We also have a partnership with Oakland University that provides us with additional resources as well as student teacher opportunities.
High Scope Curriculum
Auburn & Woodland ELC
The Early Learning programs offered at
Auburn and Woodland Elementary
implement the use of the High Scope
Preschool Curriculum. This curriculum not
only includes appropriate content for
children 3—5 years old, but an effective,
proven method of teaching the content. It
focuses on the five dimensions of school
readiness and is aligned with the
Common Core State Standards. It is
widely used and accepted as the standard
in the early childhood community. Those
eight dimensions include:
▪ Approaches to Learning
▪ Social & Emotional Development
▪ Physical Development and Health
▪ Language, Literacy & Communication
▪ Mathematics
▪ Creative Arts
▪ Science & Technology
▪ Social Studies
Avondale Montessori
The philosophy and curriculum of the
Montessori method is based on the work
and writings of the Italian Physician Maria
Montessori. Principles of the Montessori
include:
▪ Based on the idea that children teach
themselves through their own experiences
▪ Provides a carefully prepared and orderly
environment
▪ Included in this environment are
sequenced materials in four main areas:
Development of the Senses
Conceptual/Academic Development
Competence in Practical Life Skills
Character Development
▪ Materials proceed from the simple to
complex and concrete to abstract
▪ Much of class time is spent on independent
activity Tuition Fee
