Early Preschool: 30 – 36 Months

Our early preschool classroom will focus on creating a nurturing learning environment where your child can feel safe and secure.  Children are able to learn and grow when they feel safe and cared for, are appropriately challenged and guided and have strong relationships with nurturing adults.  That is our main objective to lay this foundation at an early age.

We use The Creative Curriculum® which is a comprehensive, researched-based curriculum designed to implement developmentally appropriate practices and offer responsive daily routines and meaningful experiences that nurture learning and development.

Our staff will work with your child’s individual needs to become fully potty trained if they are not already.  We have developed a system that is sure to make potty training a rewarding experience for both parent and child.

Teachers will begin largely focusing on the children’s fine motor skills.  The children will learn the correct way to hold and handle a pencil, use scissors to cut a straight line, and trace letters and numbers.

Our staff will implement lesson plans that will increase the children’s developing skills in a variety of age appropriate activities.  Each morning and afternoon the children will participate in group time, where they will continue to work on recognizing shapes, colors, numbers, and letters.  Along with mastering the recognition of shapes and colors they will also work on letter and number recognition, as well as recognizing their name in print.

The children will be exploring the outside world with outside play time (weather permitting).  The children will enjoy a wonderful playground with age appropriate equipment where they can climb, run, and ride bikes on our bike path.
