Our Pre Kindergarten program concentrates on kindergarten readiness.  Structure is very important at this age.  Our goal is for all pre kindergarten to be able to master the alphabet through sight and sound, which in large part is accomplished through phonics.  Mathematically they should be able to recognize and understand the concept of numbers, recognized size relationships and grasp conservation such as two things being equal which do not necessarily appear to be equal.  (ex. a whole apple equals the same as the same apple sliced up.)

Language and Literacy

Each day we focus on age-appropriate literacy objectives, including letter recognition, letter sounds, and emerging writing skills.  Children are well on their way to becoming fluent in reading and writing.

Mathematics

Children engage in the exciting work of numbers as they sort, construct, classify, and match.  They also learn counting, measuring, and a variety of math skills.

Creative Arts and Music

Participation in creative arts and music allows children to showcase their talents.  Exposing children to works by master artists and then asking them to create their own interpretation inspires children to find their own unique voice.

Science and Discovery

Your child’s mind for science will become stronger though hands-on experiences when he or she learns to predict results, test ideas, and draw conclusions.  As an explorer in this new world, your child will examine and use various tools of discovery.
