Our Projects
Toddler - 1 to 2 year-olds
Welcome to Toddler’s Adventure!
Starting school is the first step into a world of discovery. It’s here at Toddler that the adventure begins, where the body develops, new interactions emerge, and the first words come to life. It’s the stage where little ones discover the magic of a world to be explored. Here at Puzzle, we create an environment that embraces and stimulates each child. With plenty of visual, tactile, and physical stimulation, we use a variety of resources to ensure comprehensive learning. To enrich this journey, our “Discovering the Senses” project invites little ones to explore the world through their five senses. In a playful and thoughtful way, sensory play not only stimulates curiosity, but also expands each child’s world.
G2 - 2 year-olds
Here at Puzzle, we create semester-long educational projects. Our focus is to stimulate physical, psychological, intellectual, social, and emotional aspects through play. We believe that play is an essential tool in Early Childhood Education. Every day, we use play to help children learn to get to know, to do, to be together, and to be. Our 2-year-olds are in the fascinating phase of discovering the world through exploration. For them, everything is a new sensation. Therefore, it’s common to see them touching and feeling everything around them, which is their way of connecting with and understanding the world. Therefore, through sensory experiences, games, and meaningful activities, we bring the world into our classroom. We promote unforgettable moments full of learning, where curious little hands are the main protagonists of countless discoveries.
G3 - 3 year-olds
Play and Learn: The World of Colors!
We believe that play is the primary form of learning in Early Childhood. It is through play that 3-year-olds explore the world, interact with peers, and develop essential life skills. With this in mind, we create an environment that stimulates curiosity and learning in a playful and fun way. His semester, our G3 students embarked on a special project: “The Day the Crayons Quit.” Based on the book of the same name, this project offers endless possibilities for child development. Through this engaging story, children immerse themselves in the fascinating world of colors, exploring shapes, discovering modes of transportation, and becoming familiar with numbers and emotions. Each activity is designed to be a meaningful experience, connecting the book to everyday classroom life. Our goal is to transform learning into an unforgettable adventure, where each child is encouraged to express their creativity and develop fully.
G4 - 4 year-olds
At age 4, curiosity and a desire for answers blossom. Therefore, our activities are built around each child’s interests, enriching learning and fostering holistic development through play. We work with semester-long educational projects, where each topic is carefully connected to a supplementary book. This semester, for example, we are delving into the “Everyone Matters” project with the support of the book The Suitcase, an adventure of knowledge and empathy. Another new experience for our G4 students was the introduction to the world of literacy. We developed playful material aligned with the BNCC (Brazilian National Curriculum), whose goal is to promote the experience of these contents in a pleasurable way, which we then work on in the Workbook.
G5 - 5 year-olds
Teaching Program: As our students grow, we expand our learning journey! We offer a full-day teaching program, with subjects taught both in Portuguese and English. The literacy process takes place in our students’ mother tongue: Portuguese. Classes in Portuguese Book – Projeto Presente: We use teaching resources from Projeto Presente to enrich learning in an interactive way, with activities at school and, occasionally, at home. Project “O Caso do Bolinho” (The Case of the Cookie): Through this book, we encourage reading and the creation of the class’s first book, in addition to working on didactic sequences and word formation. Social-Emotional Short Films: During the semester, we use short films to help resolve conflicts and understand social differences, promoting empathy.

English Classes – Cambridge Material: English immersion takes place with the Cambridge Publishing House’s Pippa and Pop resources. Listening Development: Our classes are focused on promoting listening, so that students develop their hearing skills and a solid foundation for communication in English. We know how important it is to have new challenges in learning, including the introduction of structured teaching materials. However, we emphasize that childhood is a period of discovery and the formation of the foundations of knowledge, and it is through play that children explore the world in a more informal and meaningful way. All our proposals have playfulness as a pillar for learning. We believe that, through play, children assimilate and reframe their knowledge. They not only absorb information, but actively experience it, connecting it to their own experiences and emotions. Play then becomes a powerful tool.
