Montessori Curriculum:
The basic Montessori curriculum is divided into five parts. The Practical Life section is devoted to teaching the child how to master everyday, self reliance skills such as dressing one’s self, preparing one’s own snack, pouring one’s drink, cleaning up after one’s self, etc. How proud our students are when they can peel and slice a banana (safety cutters, of course!) on their own and serve it to their friends for snack. The Sensorial exercises help to teach children to use their senses as a pathway to discovery.

By the time our students graduate PMC, many are already reading and have a fundamental grasp of the English language. The Cultural Studies dimension of the curriculum includes exposure to geography (maps, globes, land forms, ecology, etc.) biology (care and study of plants and animals) and social studies (exposure to different countries, cultures, customs, holidays, etc.).

Creation Station Huntington Beach

Courses / Programs

Based in Fountain Valley, Orange County, CA, Creation Station Huntington Beach offers a wildly creative dance school concept for kids and teens which provides movement-based dance programs starting at age 18 months. Our creative teaching techniques combined with a carefully structured syllabus is what makes Creation Station the most popular dance and enrichment program for toddlers and young children on both coasts.

The non-competitive atmosphere, the use of hundreds of props and costumes, along with the small class size allows children to tap into their imagination in a way vastly different from most other dance schools. Creation Station students don't really realize they are learning traditional technique while in class. Due to the way the syllabus is set up, most children and their parents just think it is all fun and games.

Along with learning basic terminology and specific movements geared toward a specific discipline, we take a developmental approach to teaching. We have realistic and age appropriate expectations for the children.

Dance Classes for Kids & Teens: These classes help your child develop their creative abilities in movement.
