Developmental Preschool / Peer Pal Program As in all preschools, children attending the Madison Developmental Preschool/Peer Pal Program are making new friends, learning new skills, and having lots of fun. This integrated preschool program offers small classes with individual attention for all students. The classes are taught by certified teachers with academic backgrounds in early childhood, special education, and child language development. These professionals strive to provide a creative and nurturing environment where children who have been identified with special needs play along side their typically developing peers. The preschool curriculum is designed to meet the developmental needs of all children with play as the primary means of encouraging skill development. The children are given the opportunity to actively manipulate materials in a natural play setting, thus gaining new skills while fostering new relationships. The Developmental Preschool/Peer Pal Program focuses on child-directed rather than teacher-directed activities. Research shows that peer children placed alongside children with special needs will grow to become more independent and empathetic toward others. Through social interaction and play they learn to share, respect others, problem solve appropiately, and understand themselves and how to positively affect their environment. The Developmental Preschool/Peer Pal Program has current openings for both morning and afternoon sessions. For more information, please call (602) 664-7227
