Magic
From Page 6
materials that beckon
and provoke thought.
Children are invited to
touch, build, take apart,
put together, taste, listen,
invent, collaborate,
and problem solve...
and most importantly
to reveal themselves
to each other and their
teachers. We want to
know our children, not
change them. We have
the honor of serving
as guides through their
explorations of the
world around them and
friendships they create.
Experience is the central
practice in a progressive
education and
play/simulation is the
language of childhood.
Baker magic does
happen. It happens
during these foundational
years in a way
that fosters each child’s
learning dispositions
and unique qualities
while building a strong
foundation for future
growth. The experience
can feel seamless
and belie the thought,
knowledge, and execution
of a progressive
practice that “trickles
up” all the way to eighth
grade graduation.
We invite you to visit
our school for a tour or
to meet our teachers and
experience the magic
in our classrooms first
hand. We look forward
to joining you and your
child on their wonderful
journey to adulthood.
