Holly Springs School has an amazing Developmental Program created just for your Two Year Old!

Our curriculum incorporates a Montessori-like math, vocabulary expansion practices, along with student-initiated learning activities. Research has demonstrated that during this developmental stage, children learn math concepts such as size, shape, quantity, and patterns using manipulatives. Our lesson plans reflect these benchmarks and incorporate them in both formal and informal instruction time. Each month our math curriculum introduces new math concepts like number recognition, becoming familiar with quantity, sorting and classification.

We have worked diligently to create a ‘CAN DO’ classroom at Holly Springs School. Our two-year-olds learn how to clean up spills, put away personal belongings, set the table for lunch and much more. At this age, rapid movement and exploring independence are predominant. We designed our classroom that creates many opportunities to discover the world around them. Our teachers go beyond the custodial care of feeding, diapering and safety. They focus on reaching development milestones in the areas of human affection, age-appropriate guidance and creating the environment for lifelong learning.

For two-year-olds, building a solid foundation for social skills is valuable. It is during this time that development is enhanced through greater interactive rather than parallel play. Our program provides a balanced approach in the classroom that engages the whole child with a blend of music, art and comprehensive movement.  As well, the early education fundamentals for socializing are practiced, readying them for smoother transitions as they continue toward preschool. Our curriculum director works hand-in-hand with the lead teacher to ensure that the each child receives the highest quality programming.
