The Reggio - Inspired Curriculum

Our Reggio-inspired curriculum is flexible and arises from children's ideas, thoughts and observations. Our goal is to Promote within children a lifelong passion for learning and exploration. The curriculum at Greenopia is a journey to building relationships with people (both children and adults) and creating connections between ideas and the environment. Consequently, we have shaped and generated a credited and attributed a set of courses and syllabus that comprise of themes, literacy, Numeracy, Nursery Rhymes, arts and crafts and gross motor skills.

Greenopia Pre-School is a friendly, caring pre-school catering for 1.8-4 year olds. Our well-equipped and unique facilities consist of 3 Nursery Classes and 3 preschool classes with exceptional names inspired from nature: Winter rain, Autumn Leaves, Sky Clouds, Spring Flowers, Summer Sun, and Earth Angels.

The 100 Language

At Greenopia we provide children with different avenues to show their understanding and express their thoughts and creativity reinforcing the belief we have that children have unlimited ways to sympiloclly express their thoughts and feelings. At our preschool, children are encouraged to detect their understanding through:

• Drawing and painting
  
• Sculpting and modeling
  
• Drama
• Music
• Pretend play
• Yoga
• Sensations

Environment as a Third Party

Greenopia’s teachers inspire children and engineer learning experiences that make the child himself the leader. We believe that teachers’ role is to observe, listen to their questions and stories and find what interests them and then provide them with opportunities to explore those interests further.

Documentation

We believe in the power of documentation as a mean to identify children’s strengths ideas and next step to support learning. It raises the parents’ awareness of their child’s experience and development and most importantly it shows children that their work is valued.
At Greenopia, teachers document children’s learning process daily through transcripts of children’s verbal language, photographs of their activity and representation of their thinking in many media, all of which are placed in folders that are returned home to parents on weekly basis.
At the heart of the Greenopia philosophy is the belief that children are full of curiosity and creativity. The Reggio-inspired curriculum is flexible and emerges from children’s ideas, thoughts and observations done by their educators.
