At Celebree School® of Laurel, our aim is to develop the whole child, including their mathematical abilities. In fact, mathematical thinking is a core part of our curriculum right from the start. At our day care, serving children in Laurel, Russett, and nearby areas in MD, we use hands-on, fun-filled activities and projects to instill math skills, from counting and measuring to recognizing shapes and patterns. As a result, your child will have a solid mathematical foundation. Here’s how we do it.
How Our Day Care Instills Early Math Skills
At Celebree School of Laurel, our day care integrates the Seven Domains of Learning into our curriculum, with one of those domains being Mathematical Thinking. This enables us to dig into the world of math and make it fun for children by connecting it to their everyday life.
We even bring math skills into other domains, like social and emotional learning, the arts, and language and communication, so they are applying math in all areas of their lives. In the process, we focus on:
- Number sense. Number sense is a critical part of early math learning. From counting toes to counting down days to holidays, we bring it to life in interesting and engaging ways, so children are motivated to learn and reach milestones as they do.
- Spatial awareness. This is how children perceive the world around them and we help them make sense of it by teaching them about sizes, shapes, surfaces, points, and lines. We also cover topics like near and far and distance and even dive into directional skills as children get older.
- Measuring. This is just another core part of mathematical thinking every person needs in school and in life. From weighing objects to measuring time, we cover it all, helping children think in mathematically creative ways to make connections, solve problems, and gain key skills.
