Inclusion Program
Inclusive Excellence Program
Joyful Learning EDC in San Jose, California, is dedicated to supporting families with that require additional support. In addition to our comprehensive programs and activities, we collaborate closely with the child’s wrap-around team to ensure their development. We believe in creating a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child can thrive and reach their full potential.
Individualized Support
Our approach to supporting children with inclusion needs begins with understanding their unique interests and needs. We prioritize identifying each child’s specific requirements and develop activities and programs tailored to meet them. By working closely with parents and understanding their child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP), we create a support plan that addresses their individual needs. We regularly monitor their progress and adjust as necessary to ensure their continued development.
Accommodations and Modifications
We understand the importance of creating an inclusive setting where all children can actively participate and thrive. To provide the appropriate support, we make necessary accommodations and modifications to our learning environment, curriculum, and materials. This may include providing specialized equipment, sensory support, visual aids, or assistive technologies. Our goal is to create an environment where children with inclusion needs feel valued, included, and supported in their learning journey.
Parent Engagement
We believe that strong partnerships with parents and families are crucial in supporting children with inclusion needs. We actively engage with parents to gain a deeper understanding of their needs, preferences, and goals for their child. Through open communication, we provide ongoing support, guidance, and resources to assist parents in their child’s learning and development journey. We value their insights and work collaboratively to ensure the best outcomes for their child.
Inclusive Activities
We offer a diverse range of structured and unstructured activities that cater to the interests and abilities of children that require additional support. Engaging and hands-on experiences, such as experiments, projects, and problem-solving activities, are designed to ignite curiosity and cultivate an interest in STEAM subjects. Our activities promote social interaction, collaboration, and the development of essential skills that contribute to overall growth and well-being.
Collaboration with Wrap-Around Team
We understand the importance of a collaborative approach in supporting children with inclusion needs. We actively collaborate with the child’s wrap-around team, which may include therapists and other professionals involved in their care. With prior permission from the director, we work closely with these professionals to facilitate the child’s participation and development during their time in our preschool program. This collaboration ensures a cohesive and compressive approach to supporting the child’s individual needs.
At Joyful Learning EDC, our commitment is to provide a nurturing and supportive environment where all children, including those that require additional support, can thrive. Through individualized support, accommodations and modifications, parent engagement, STEAM education, inclusive activities, and collaboration with the wrap-around team, we strive to create an inclusive and empowering learning environment. We believe that every child, regardless of their abilities, backgrounds, or characteristics, deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential.
