There's A Lot To Learn In Preschool
How To Be A Good Student
Kids learn how to share, participate in groups, follow instructions and make new friends.
They also learn important pre-math, science and literacy skills to get them ready for kindergarten.
Social Emotional Development
Children gain a sense of self, explore, get along with peers, and build confidence and independence.
It’s important for kids to spend time away from parents and build trusting relationships with adults outside the family.
Language and Cognitive Skills
Teachers help children stretch their language skills by asking thought-provoking questions and introducing new vocabulary.
Students engage in hands-on activities that challenge them to observe closely, ask questions, test their ideas or solve a problem.
Motor Skills
Kids are encouraged to run, climb and play active games - all of the things that help them grow strong and develop motor skills.
They'll also create works of art using scissors, crayons and paint brushes - all while developing their fine motor skills.
