Our Approach to Learning
FAZ partners with Teaching Strategies to provide innovative and effective curricula and assessments for your children. Teaching Strategies helps our teachers make learning exciting and relevant for your child. Learn More >
Assessments
Screening
When your child enrolls, FAZ will use the Early Screening Inventory-Revised (ESI-R) for preschoolers and the Ages & Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) for infants and toddlers. This helps inform us about your child’s development and needs.
Achievement
Each day, our staff uses Teaching Strategies GOLD to collect observations about your child’s interactions and work samples. This allows us to track their progress in language, literacy, social studies, art, math, science and technology as well as social-emotional, physical and cognitive development.
Quality
FAZ uses the Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) to understand the quality of interactions between our staff and your child. We also use the Early Childhood Environmental Rating Scale-Revised (ECERS-R) to measure the quality of our learning environments.
Additional Educational Services
Montessori Manipulatives
Our collection of sensory materials allows children to work independently in an environment that facilitates learning. New concepts children can explore include visual perception, visual discrimination of length and size, tactile sense, color awareness and appreciation, and object equivalency, congruency and similarity.
Little Pim
Children at FAZ are offered words, phrases and sentences in French, Spanish and Arabic through our Little Pim language program. In an increasingly global community, we believe that learning new languages, especially during the most critical years for language development, is beneficial for children in the long run.

Fitness Academy
Fitness Academy brings sports to young children in a fun, engaging way. From the music to the activities to the equipment, every aspect of Fitness Academy has been researched to be both enjoyable and developmentally beneficial to young minds and bodies.
Marbotic
Children learn best when they manipulate physical objects. It’s also one of the foundations of the Montessori teaching method, which is why we’e partnered with Marbotic, an interactive learning system mixing traditional wooden toys and touchscreen technology. Learn More >
