curriculum Magic Garden’s classroom curriculum is carefully designed to meet a child’s social, emotional, physical, and intellectual needs at each stage of development. We are proud to offer an individualized approach for each child in our program, adapting classroom curriculum and accessing experts with a broad range of teaching and therapeutic skills to create the optimal learning experience for all children.

Our curriculum promotes active, hands-on learning as children become explorers, problem-solvers, observers, and playful experimenters. In addition to building competency in pre-academic skills, this approach helps foster creativity, teamwork, problem-solving strategies, reflection, and self-confidence. The materials used to support our classroom curriculum are revised throughout the year in response to the children’s evolving capabilities, needs and interests. Imaginations soar as children immerse themselves in the rainforest, research dinosaurs, learn about the human body, sample African cultures, or travel back to medieval times. Teachers integrate and adapt many curriculum elements and activities into unified themes that provide a focal point for in-depth study and exploration.

The Wellesley College Center for Research on Women used Magic Garden as a clinical training site for data collectors in their Massachusetts School Readiness Study, stating:

“The Pre-K classroom provides children with a wide range of activities and materials, which serves as an excellent training opportunity [for our staff].”
