"The preschool program is from October through May and includes:
- Spanish
- Sign language
- Arts and crafts
- Science
- Math manipulatives
- Games and songs
- Letters
* Colors
* Shapes
* Numbers
We also do fun activities such as holiday parties, "Mister Weather Man", face painting, pajama day and show and tell! We incubate and hatch chickens so we can watch the miracle of life and give the children a sense of responsibility. We watch monarch caterpillars turn into butterflies.
A "parent show and tell" is also offered, but not required. This gives the parents an opportunity to share some knowledge with the children and spend time in our learning environment!
Where other preschool programs focus on just the basics of letter recognition, writing their name and how to interact.....my program offers all that and so much more!
- A report card will be given for each child in the spring so that you can see your child's progress.
- Your child has the opportunity to move at his/her own learning pace.
- Younger children are given basic training: letter recognition, shapes, colors and easier crafts to build self-esteem.
- Older children can move on to more advanced learning and crafts such as writing skills and sight words so they are reading by the time they go to kindergarten.
You will be provided with a bulletin and calendar each month so that you know what your child is doing each day. I also send you pictures and your child's schedule for the day via text for the first two weeks to reassure you that your child is doing just fine. Then you will receive pictures every 6-8 weeks thereafter so you can SEE some of the fun things your child is doing!
There is a 7 acre backyard park with a twisty slide, swings, merry-go-round and a big sandpit for lots of supervised outdoor play. We have outdoor learning such as watching flowers and apple trees grow, watching caterpillars turn in to butterflies. watching insects work, and go for exploring walks.
Have YOUR child join a fun learning environment!
