First Day of Preschool is August 12th...only a couple spaces left!
Three's preschool
2-5 days a week for children that are three by September 1st
The 3-4 age range is an important transition period between the little toddlers and the older pre-kindergarteners. While their physical growth may slow, it's still a tremendous year of intellectual and social emotional development. Their increased maturity allows them to sit longer with increased engagement, and you may also notice that what was once individual play now morphs into more cooperative play with their peers. Through all interactions, our teachers help build important concepts such as communicating appropriately, emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and body spatial awareness. Precision fine motor skills are encouraged through writing and art activities along with daily manipulative stations. Academic concepts introduced include theme learning, process art (vs "free art"), multi-step projects, letter recognition, number recognition/sequencing, 10 frame counting, name writing, and days of the week.
- Max 13 students per two teachers
- The three year old's are ready for our "Big" playground with all new things to ride, climb, swing, dig, and explore!
- The threes rooms feature a bathroom just adjacent to the classroom so the students have a little more individual responsibility while still being in view of the teachers. It's just fine if some of our three year old friends still need a pull up or some extra help in the bathroom as well.
- Keep informed on your child's day via real time updates and photos on the Brightwheel app including check in/out, bathroom activity, snack, lunch, and nap times.
Listening and participating in circle time!
