The greatest gifts we can give our children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.
— Maria Montessori

Educating the whole child means understanding the full scope of development across all developmental domains.

The Five Developmental Domains:

Domain 1: Approaches to Learning How children become involved in learning and acquiring knowledge.

Domain 2: Physical Development and Health Children’s physical health and ability to engage in daily activities, both outdoors and inside.

Domain 3: Social and Emotional Learning The emotional competence and ability to form positive relationships that give meaning to children’s experiences in the home, school, and larger community.

Domain 4: Communication, Language, and Literacy How children understand, create, and communicate meaning.

Domain 5: Cognition and Knowledge of the World (Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Arts) What children need to know and understand about their world and how they apply what they know.

Ready, set, grow! At Kidz Village our students learn using the Interdisciplinary Units of Study and 3K explorations provided by the DOE. Each unit offers children opportunities to investigate, explore, and learn new skills. Children learn critical thinking skills and grow across developmental domains.
