MODEL SCERTS PROGRAM
Author’s Program in Kindergarten
We work according to our own program based on the scientific research in the field of neurodidactics and education. Three key elements which build our everyday preschool-activity contains: Social Communication + Emotional Regulation + Transactional Support according to the SCERTS Model. We are a first educational-institution of this type in Poland. We subject our work to the constant supervision as well.
According to the main assumptions of the SCERTS Model Poland we are particularly interested in the development of our preschool children’s the communication skills + social skills + emotional competences + interpersonal skills. We are also close to the design approach + passion for nature + the concept of immersion + development of critical thinking and finally education through movement and music (e.g. The Good Start Method by M. Bogdanowicz + Active Listening to Music by B. Strauss + Physical Activity Program by M. Ch. Knill + Development Movement Method by W. Sherborne + Mindfulness + Yoga for children).
A very important aspect of our everyday work is also a polysensory approach. Therefore the entire space and its equipment in our preschool have been very carefully planned by a certified therapist according to the Sensory Integration (SI) method. We also try to provide all children (especially children with ASD) with the greatest possible sensory comfort together with the multisensory information transfer channel.
In a very short way it could be said that the model we propose is more a philosophy than a specific work method. It is also an attempt for a more holistic and multidisciplinary view of education in Poland. This model uses only the non-directive methods from selected educational-techniques such as for example: NVC / STEAM / MDS or Montessori.
