Developmental Preschool Program
Based on the latest research in Neuroscience, we strive to appropriately address the challenges for young children diagnosed with developmental delays in a school setting. At the same time, we celebrate the strengths of each individual child to capitalize on progress. CTC uses a Developmental Curriculum, approved by the New Jersey Department of Education in the Preschool classroom. Tools of the Mind, (Vygotsky) adheres to the most current Preschool Teaching and Learning Standards. This curriculum is a research-based early childhood curriculum that heavily focuses on self-regulation, thinking and executive functioning. It compliments our developmental framework and is infused into the day, as a layer within the DIR Model. In addition, the Preschool program utilizes a variety of other multi-sensory, experienced-based curriculums to support individual developmental capacities and foundations for learning.
