C1: Hundred Acre woods (Older Infants)
Welcome to our Older Infants & Young Toddlers Wild Ones class!
This class is part of our infant suite. Our Hundred Acre woods class is for children approximately 8-18 months of age and is designed to help bridge the gap between our traditional flexible infant room and our more structured toddler room. In this class we begin to introduce more structure, but we also follow each child's own schedule from home as well. This age group receives more teacher directed activities and more large motor activities than our young infants classroom. Our teachers in this class are dedicated to providing high quality care by providing a sanitary and welcoming environment and assisting our children with learning vital early skills such as vocal play, muscle development & tone, care giver trust, and engagement with their environment while also beginning to foster independence and the emergence of unique personalities. Our teachers work hard to ensure that families are updated quickly and that families feel comfortable and secure with bringing their children to childcare. Our infant teachers are excellent in helping to shape our emerging kiddos into children that love God and are ready to tackle the world.
Our Classroom
Lesson Plans
Each week, lead teachers will plan age appropriate lesson plans for their classroom. In addition to our school year and summer themes and curriculum, we also use Indiana Early Learning Foundations to ensure that we hit sufficient learning targets for each foundation and age group. For infants & young toddlers, the class will have their very own lesson plan created for them each week. Below is a sample of our weekly lesson plan for infants & young toddlers
