The philosophy of our preschool program is children learn by doing! Children spend a part of the day in group activities and part of their day involved in self-directed learning centers. Learning Centers may include Art, Science, Math, Dramatic Play, Reading, Writing and Blocks. Language learning is a key element in the classroom and takes place through the use of songs, stories, fingerplays, and poems. A typical day for a preschooler may include circle time, group activities, learning centers, music, lunch, quiet/rest time, swim, gym, and outside play.
