Preschool Programs
Our classes provide lessons and activities appropriate to each child's age, stage of development and interests. Both classroom and playground environments are planned to encourage independence, cooperative play, and free time for creative and imaginative activities. The day's activities are balanced between academic, creative and social time. Throughout the day, our teachers work one-on-one with children and at group learning centers to explore literacy and language development, creative free art, math and science skills, creative movement and music, dramatic play and holiday and multicultural celebrations.
When children first begin preschool, teachers focus on helping each child master self-help skills, classroom and social skills, and increased independence. As children gain maturity and confidence they begin to prepare for TK or kindergarten and are introduced to:
• Pre-writing and reading skills --- Letter recognition and printing, beginning phonics and name recognition
• Pre-math skills --- Number recognition and printing, math skills through manipulatives and games, colors and shapes
• Science --- Monthly units focus on natural life cycles, chemical reactions and physics
• Fine and gross motor skills --- Daily classroom activities develop hand strength and coordination. Each day on the playground, children are encouraged to run, jump, swing and climb. Physical education classes in our gymnasium focus on gross motor skills, flexibility and coordination.
Throughout the year teachers work as a team to continually assess each student’s emotional, social and academic growth and development. Each day teachers send home the students' writing, art and creations so that parents can also track their child’s progress. Detailed assessments are made for each student twice a year, in November and May, and are shared with parents at parent/teacher conferences.
