At Yang Fan Preschool learning is active, not passive.
Children don’t just study science, they do it. They don’t just hear or read great writing, they write. They don’t just listen to teachers, they ask questions. Each learning experience leads to the next. It is our goal to teach cognitive, creative, and social skills through large and small groups and use various project work to address several academic areas in an integrated manner.
Our priority throughout the curriculum is to develop the habits of inquiry and reflection. Our emphasis is knowing each child, meeting him or her where s/he is, and guiding the child from that point to fulfill their fullest potential.
We offer a safe and nurturing community; a child-centered environment that fosters an enthusiasm for learning; an inquiry-based curriculum with thematic hands-on projects; art, music, Chinese language instruction, and enrichment programs in soccer, robotics, tumbling, and more.
The YOUNG PRESCHOOL program uses a series of curriculum that introduces early language and math skills, art and science exploration, and music and social skills. It is our intention to nurture the development of the whole child and provide our Young Preschoolers with a flexible, balanced program of activity and quiet and individual and group activities. These elements are developmentally age-appropriate, hands-on and provide a well-rounded learning experience for our two year olds.

CHINESE Language – Children learn Mandarin Chinese in much the same way as they learn their first, native tongue – by hearing it, speaking it, using it. For a tonal language such as Mandarin Chinese, this is imperative for mastering early, instinctively, the lilt of the language. At Yang Fan Preschool children learn Mandarin as they sing, play games, learn nursery rhymes, hear stories, recognize and write simple Chinese characters, and more while having fun!
