Though there is the option of three days or five days for this program, both programs offer the same curriculum content. Social skills and the ideals of working cooperatively are encouraged. Emergent literacy and numeracy skills are supported in the context of hands on activities both indoors and out. Children will act out the stories they read and make up. They will experiment with a wide range of art materials and processes. Number and letter recognition, counting and one to one correspondence are presented in a meaningful context: play. Children look closely at nature and the environment right outside our door. The children’s routine is the structure of their day.
There are two morning sessions for three year olds:
Five days a week: 9:00a - 12:00p.
Three days a week: Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 9:00a - 12:00p.
Threes Lunch Bunch
The Threes classes are offered the opportunity to bring their lunch to school and stay from 12:00p to 1:00p Monday thru Thursday. The Lunch Bunch program gives the children time to eat lunch with friends and have additional story and exploration time in the classroom.
Afterschool Enrichment Program
This themed based afterschool enrichment program is from 12:00p-1:00p on Fridays. After the children eat their lunch, they then participate in a variety of activities that include science experiences, special art process, story telling and drama.
