3-4 year old Kindergarten
|
Pre-school children are beginning to prepare for
the elementary school years. As professionals, our teachers provide a structured learning environment
so each child will have a strong foundation. We provide children
with a variety of different activities based on a structured daily
routine which enhances learning
though play. At this stage of development children like
to learn new information
and have the desire to master new tasks. Much of what your child learns
will be through self-initiated
experiences. Throughout the day children will have the opportunity to
explore the classroom’s multiple learning centers.

Curriculum
Our Kindergarten preschool
teachers use the Pinnacle
Curriculum and combine it with Creative curriculum for a balanced program.
Pinnacle Curriculum is
specially designed for preschoolers and provides children with an
array of individual, and small and large group activities.
Each week children will explore
a theme through group time introductions and
reviews, daily enrichments, and additions to each learning
center.
Our classrooms are
organized in various learning centers like Blocks & Building Design, Dramatic Play, Library &
Literature, Math & Table Activities , Music & Movement and Arts n
Crafts. Each learning center engages the child’s
core components of development: socio-emotional, language,
cognitive, physical and aesthetic. Our teachers recognize and
emphasize the importance of combining a well-designed curriculum with age
appropriate learning centers.

Our outdoor activities are planned to help
extend learning to the outside classroom. Just as small muscle coordination
is strengthened through puzzles, painting, and cutting, large muscle
coordination is developed through outdoor play. Learning cooperation
and team building through games and planned activities helps the
preschool child understand effective physical and emotional interaction
with his peers.

Of course,
sometimes just swinging and sliding are all that the children need to do
and we take care of that with our age appropriate playground
equipment..
