Abstract/Notes: Dubai, Nov. 9 -- Tiny Home Nursery, a leading Montessori nursery, has relocated its sprawling premises to Al Manara, Jumeirah in Dubai. In keeping with a growing demand for Montessori education, Tiny Home Montessori Nursery, which was founded in 1989 in Dubai, has moved to an expansive facility to accommodate more students, at the same time offering easy access to all areas of Dubai. Following a Montessori education, the curriculum aims to offer a development of personal dignity and ability in each child, ensuring that the child emerges as a confident independent thinker, generating the love to learn in them for life. Tiny Home Nursery will host an Open Day for parents on Saturday, November 10, 2012 to help them familiarize with the Nursery's offerings and mode of teaching. Commenting on the move, Ms. Helen Taylor Shaw, Principal of Tiny Home Nursery, said, "There is a growing demand for Montessori form of learning as more and more parents believe in self-learning for their children. Montessori is a simple and interactive mode of education where each act and play is an experience of learning. At Tiny Home, we provide responsive individual attention to each child and are excited to welcome smiling faces and tiny feet that are more than eager to explore their world." Ms. Helen added, "Our staff is our strength, and all our teachers are Montessori trained. We have purpose built beautiful and spacious classrooms, a diverse community of children, and high quality Montessori materials which make learning fun. We look forward to parents coming in at our Open Day on November 10 at our new premises." The Montessori method of teaching aims for complete development of the child and preparing them for life's rich experiences from the start. Montessori training encourages independence and self-learning of the child, and trains them toward critical thinking and problem solving abilities right from the start. Making good use of their fine motor skills is also done, making learning a fruitful and fun-filled experience for the child, and generate quick results. Some of the facilities that Tiny home Nursery offers are: Purpose built classrooms, spacious outdoor and indoor play area with latest play equipment, a library, a planting garden exclusively for the children, an educational summer programme and highly qualified Montessori trained teachers, liability insurance for all the children, along with doctor visits from one of the top peadiatric clinics in Dubai. Activities such as show and tell, music sessions, field trips, science experiments, water play are also a part of the curriculum provided. An indoor and soft play area ensures the safety and security of the child. The nursery also provides transport services from around the region. Tiny Home Nursery is located close to Emirates International School, in Jumeirah 3, Dubai.

Effects of Variations in the Nursery School Setting on Environmental Constraints and Children's Modes of Adaption

Abstract/Notes: Schoggen's description of environmental force units (EFU), actions or constraints upon a child, was the focus of this study. Since those EFU's under investigation conflicted with the child's immediate intentions and desires, they are referred to as conflict EFU's. The study asks how specific characteristics of preschool settings affect the natural occurrence of environmental constraints and children's adaptations to them. A Montessori class, a University Nursery School and two Head Start classes comprised the observed settings. The classification scheme devised by Wolfson and Jackson was used to describe conflictual situations. Fourteen modes of adaption are discussed. Several variables were studied and the findings are extensively presented. The author concludes that despite the high occurrance of conflict EFU in the school environments studied, behavioral changes are effected gradually and temperately, which is in agreement with previous studies done by Fawls (1963) and Schoggen (1963).
