Early Childhood

Early Childhood Program at International School of Dakar caters to 3 & 4-year olds in discovering the world through observation, interaction, play, real-life experiences and teacher-initiated activities. Play is the fundamental process for young children's learning and is central to any early childhood program. It is a natural activity for children, one through which they make meaning of the world around them.

The ECP environment is organized with centers providing a basis for learning through individual, small group, or whole group experience. Exploring and discovering with water, sand, blocks, art, drama, music, technology, mathematics and literature support children in developing basic concepts and understandings. Teachers implement a balanced curriculum which integrates language, literacy, social, emotional, physical and intellectual/cognitive development.
