working in the classroom


Working in the Classroom




Alpha children explore and work with many activities on their daily routine.
They work on their fine motor, social, pre-writing and cognitive skills among others.
Children also have the chance to develop their creativity through exploration
 of various materials.

Here you can see some of those moments...

Water play


 Water play on hot days!

Water play is great opportunity for children to explore the world they live in. 
They learn about cause and effect, floating and sinking and innumerous experiments, such as making bubbles. 
It also helps them calm down during a busy and hot day of work.
 They are simply drawn to water!
