Preschool

3-4 years


Our Preschool program is the next step in your child’s education. Here, your child begins learning about what defines them as a person and how to work with peers. Children develop their social and emotional skills while asking questions about the world around them.

Milestones

  • Teach teamwork and cooperation

  • Basic math introduced via patterns

  • Emphasis on imaginative play, hands-on experimentation, and cause and effect

Your Preschooler’s day

In our preschool program, a day consists of the following activities:

Core Learning Time

The preschool program focuses on teacher and child initiated learning activities that promote active learning. Areas are set up for math, science, fine motor skills, creative expression, sensory, dramatic play, and block building that adhere to our weekly curriculum themes. Staff encourage children to participate in each area.

 

Active Play

In our preschool program, children work on skills like learning how to use a swing independently and pedaling while riding trikes around our sidewalk.

 

Rest Time

As children age, we begin to shorten nap times to prepare them for Kindergarten.

Large Group Time

Children engage in daily discussions about theme-based topics, read fiction and non-fiction stories about the theme, as well as participate in calendar, weather, and a literacy component that introduces the weekly letters, numbers, shapes, and colors for learning.

 

Meals & Snacks

Our staff actively engage with the children during every meal time. They have dialogue about the color of foods on their plate, what they smell like, textures, and how their food tastes.

Small Group Time

Children work on specific concepts for each learning area in a small group.

Math: Children work on concepts of one-to-one counting, patterns, numeral identifications, and simple addition.

Science: We begin to introduce concepts of cause and effect, gravity, force, and movement all while doing fun hands on experiments within a small group.

Writing: Preschool children practice holding different writing materials such as a crayon or pencil. They learn how to hold and manipulate scissors in order to cut on a line and various shapes.
