Welcome to Alphabet Avenue Nursery School, 118 W. Main St., Freehold. It is their belief that young children can develop a love for learning when teachers give them opportunities to explore their world. It’s important that children be the owner of their work. It’s not enough for them to just sit and watch the teacher do something. Young children can perform a scientific experiment and feel a sense of accomplishment. This is done by giving each child his/her own set of materials to work with. They learn to follow instructions and to wait for the next step. They will listen because they are eager and interested. Young children can work on a math lesson by going to a pretend fast food restaurant and ordering a meal. Each child is given his/her own wallet and dollar bills to count and give to the cashier. They even get an actual meal and prize. But the real sense of accomplishment occurs when they handle money and manage to put it into and take it out of a wallet.
