| Our 4-year-old curriculum focuses on further development of social and academic skills. Journaling and new language concepts are introduced. In addition to circle time, crafts and sensory activities, children participate in reading/writing readiness activities, science and math projects that prepare them for kindergarten.
Fridays for four-year-olds is based on an alphabet curriculum. The crafts, music, movement, snack and story are all selected to emphasize the special letter of the day. Though not intended to explicitly teach phonics, the children are immersed in language which results in phonemic awareness and reading readiness learned in the best way -- through play! |

Children in the 3 Year Old Program will engage in free-choice play time, group time, art, music, snack time and outdoor play. Parents are not required to stay with their child in this program, but are more than welcome to do so if they wish. The Young 3's Program was designed for those children who will miss the September 1st deadline to enroll in the 3's preschool class, but who are ready to begin an independent preschool program. Young 3's graduates will move into the regular 3's preschool program or Young 4's program the next school year.
