Rock and Roll Daycare philosophy is rooted in the traditions of constructivist learning theory and practice, meaning we believe children construct their knowledge through hands-on play experiences and social interactions. Children use their previous knowledge and natural desire to learn as a foundation to build on, making every child’s individual experience unique. The social nature of learning is valued and fostered, for it is through shared relationships with others that children come to realize themselves.
Music education is the exceptional glue that holds our program together. Inspired by our own children’s transformative experiences with music, we have live music classes onsite every day. Our music curriculum challenges children to move, sing, dance, and play, breathing life and fresh creativity into the basics of music making.
Learning about ourselves and our neighbors is more important than ever in our globalized worlds. Our cultural curriculum ensures that each child sees themselves and their families reflected in our classroom media and learns about other cultures worldwide and in our community.
Partnering with our parents, teachers and the community, we integrate books, music, toys, games, recipes, visual art, special celebrations, and live performances to give students meaningful, hands-on cultural experiences throughout their formative years.
