Programs

Each month the children enjoy a new theme and are introduced to it through ideas and discussions, storybooks and tapes, art projects, game activities and more. They also focus on a weekly letter and number. We will be following the Zoo Phonics curriculum.

This class does allow for some free play where the children enjoy centers such as block area, housekeeping, art center, manipulatives, board games, outdoor play and computer.

It is our goal to help each child reach their own highest potential and to give them the best preparation for kindergarten as possible.
