BEST START FOR PRESCHOOLERS

  • Outside exploration to promote physical activity and challenges for each child
  • Consistent care to support social and emotional security for each child
  • Learning center choices to support independence, creativity and cultural diversity of each child
  • Literacy materials and writing stations to foster pre-reading skills in each child
  • Skill building groups that address the growth of future academic learning for each child
  • Healthy and safe environments to ensure the optimal growth of children
  • Family support to promote confident and successful children

Our mixed-age program enhances social development and promotes leadership and thinking skills for preschool children. We believe children learn through their play and that by offering them the appropriate areas, activities and materials they will continue to grow and develop. We offer a print rich environment that provides the child an opportunity to experience exposure to whole language as they become familiar with letters and numbers.

All our learning centers are available on a daily basis for choice and independence skills.

Music and Movement: Active and quiet activities promote listening and communication skills.

Art and Drama: Creativity is enhanced when choices are offered to "make and pretend."

Block Play: Enhances mathematical problem solving and communication skills.

Science and Discovery: Offers exploration of and experimentation with nature and everyday objects.

Small Manipulatives: Counting, classifying and eye-hand coordination are strengthened with puzzles, games and lacing materials.

Sand/Water Play: Encourages problem solving, creative thinking and measuring skills.

Book/Writing Area: Promotes language and literacy development while offering an opportunity for solitude.

Each child's learning style is recognized, respected and nurtured. Our program does not push a child into academics. We promote communication skills, understanding our feelings, problem solving, decision making and independence skills. When a child has mastered these areas, they are ready for learning academics.

We do not prepare children for school; however, the skills they acquire and the challenges they master are very beneficial to the upcoming school experience.
