HighScope in Action
We are inspired by the HighScope educational philosophy. The foundation of the HighScope approach is active learning and children’s initiative. Children’s critical thinking, self-confidence, and problem-solving abilities are developed through strong teacher-child interactions and a robust Plan-Do-Review process.
1. Plan
- Establishing a goal
- Imagining actions
- Expressing intentions
- Shaping intentions into purpose
2. Do
- Accomplishing a goal
- Solving problems
- Implementing intentions
- Playing with a purpose
3. Review
- Reflecting on experiences
- Connecting plans, actions, and outcomes
- Sharing meaningful experiences
Our teachers challenge and expand children’s thinking with diverse materials and nurturing interactions. In all our programs, children engage in active learning—direct, hands-on experiences with people, materials, and ideas.
