(4 Years Old - Kindergarten)
 

Preparation for Kindergarten is highly promoted at this level. Our Educational Programs are designed to support and encourage the growth and development of young children. The goals for our children are to build their self-confidence, initiative, independence, persistence, self-control and their ability to concentrate.

Our teachers are qualified professionals with degrees in Early Childhood Education. They participate in Continuing Educational classes pertaining to the development of young children. Our thematic Pre-k curriculum is designed to help children achieve the necessary skills to prepare for Kindergarten. The children learn through a multitude of hands on experiences, circle time, Bible story, reading and math readiness activities, science, open-ended art, large and small group activities, computer readiness and cooking. Our preschoolers are also introduced to two secondary languages, Spanish and French, during circle time and small groups. Every morning starts off with Circle time , which includes stories, songs, Bible Story, a weekly color, shape, number and weekly theme. During small structured group time, each preschooler will participate in reading readiness , math readiness, arts/craft or science activity daily. Our children are solidly prepared for Kindergarten when they graduate from our program. Our children are printing, sight reading, able to solve simple number problems, stay on task and complete given activity

As educators of young children we understand that all children develop at their own pace, learning is a process that takes time and is never complete. Our teachers evaluate the children formally twice a year and of course daily communication is always given.
Our interest areas are arranged to encourage curiosity and support the children’s development. We provide the children with opportunities to choose from various areas during free time: Housekeeping, Library, Blocks, Science/Math, Table toys, Art and Water Table area.
