3-5 years of age-Our preschool program offers a balance of free play and structured individual and group activities which gives the children a well-balanced preschool education. At this age, children are developing more intimate peer relationships, asking questions about the world around them and developing self-discipline and control. To enhance these skills our program offers activities and experiences in the areas of science, math, beginning reading and writing experiences, large and small motor skills, dramatic play, block play, creative and movement activities. Each child is viewed as a unique person with an individual pattern and timing of growth and development. Different levels of ability, development and learning styles are considered when developing appropriate activities for their class. Children are allowed to select many of their own activities from among a variety of learning areas prepared by the Director. Our daycare continues to enhance reading and writing skills to prepare each child for kindergarten. Children are provided many opportunities to develop social skills such as cooperating, helping, negotiating and talking with each other to solve problems. There will be small graduation at the end of the year to congratulate all the hard work the children in preschool that will be transitioning to kindergarten, have accomplished.
