The curriculum at Maple Bear Nursery Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah is thoughtfully designed to cater to young children's diverse needs and developmental stages.
Key elements of the curriculum include:
Environmental awareness and responsibility are emphasised through ecoliteracy in the curriculum. Children are taught to appreciate and protect the natural world, fostering a sense of environmental stewardship and eco-consciousness from an early age.
Maple Bear incorporates mindfulness practices into the curriculum to promote emotional well-being and self-awareness. Children develop emotional balance and resilience by cultivating mindfulness, positively impacting their learning and social interactions.
The curriculum focuses on holistic development, addressing cognitive, social, emotional, physical and creative aspects of a child's growth. Through a balanced and comprehensive approach, children acquire skills that lay a strong foundation for their overall development.
Play is an integral part of the curriculum, as it is a natural learning mode for young children. The curriculum uses play-based learning to foster creativity, imagination, and exploration, allowing children to construct knowledge through hands-on experiences.
A multilingual program is delivered through language immersion methodology, through which children are exposed to English, Arabic and French in a natural and interactive environment. Teachers and educators use these languages to communicate with children, which helps them develop language skills through regular exposure. This natural approach enables children to gain confidence in communicating effectively in these languages.
Maple Bear Nursery introduces early literacy and developmentally appropriate numeracy concepts. Through engaging activities and experiences, children develop language and numeracy skills, laying the groundwork for future academic success.
The Maple Bear preschool program is designed to educate the child, physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.
