TriBeCa
Community School - Our Program
|
| |
|
 |
| At
the TriBeCa Community School students develop
a sense of self-worth based on their persistence
they demonstrate reaching their goals. Our
programs are designed to deepen and enrich
children's encounter with the world, their
community and with each other, while cultivating
their self-esteem. Learning is accomplished
by creating meaningful experiences that are
joyful and rewarding in their own right. Long-term
projects or "investigations" encourage
children to probe and wonder about their environment,
while forming meaningful relationships that
facilitate their ongoing social and emotional
growth in the process. |
 |
| The
surroundings also play a key role in the programs
we offer. Our space is designed to provide
maximum comfort and is organized to support
both small and large group project work. Materials
displayed alongside children's projects lend
to the comfortable, home-like environment,
while a central atelier (art studio) offers
access to materials and supplies for inspiring
and engaging children in creative projects. |
|
|
Through
the use of painting, sculpting, music, science,
storytelling, theatre and other forms of
self-expression, children are taught to
give voice to their thoughts and ideas,
as well as share their newfound discoveries
and understandings. |
