Wings Learning Center
was created to address the academic and
social needs of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
At Wings,
students work in an individualized, small group setting where the
curriculum provides opportunities for each child to be challenged
and to excel. Teachers use language-based, multi-sensory and interactive teaching methods to
make learning accessible for every child.
Our goal is to help
each student to be the best that he or she can be, capable of living
independently as a member of the society. If at all possible, we
strive to transition each student to an appropriate public or
private school classroom with the necessary skills and strategies to
be a successful and independent learner.
Our teaching
philosophy is based on the following concepts:
- Respect each child as
a whole and unique individual and as an active participant in
his/her environment.
- Challenge each child
by focusing on his/her strengths and encouraging consistent steps
towards overall development.
- Observe and respond
to the child’s emotional, academic and social
development.
- Believe in the
child’s ability and desire to learn and grow.
-
Provide vital
opportunities for social interaction and play throughout the
child's day.
How will we
accomplish this?
- Parent Involvement.
- A
commited team of teachers and therapists who communicate
effectively together, support one another, and receive ongoing
training and evaluation.
- A
classroom environment that is structured, calm,
organized, clean and conducive to learning across all
modalities.
