Toddlers
Our toddler program is designed to provide a safe, secure atmosphere providing small group interaction between children learning to play and share in experiences with others. Basic units are introduced such as colors, animal sounds, shapes, textures, etc. Children participate in exercise, music, outdoor play, simple toys, and games.
2 Year Olds
As they become two, children become more organized and express themselves in a variety of ways. They learn about season changes, self, animals, helpers, differences, etc.
3 Year Olds
Three year olds become more independent and confident. They learn cooperation skills and advance to longer group times. Units include numbers, letters, transportation, comparison, etc. Three year olds work on following directions and self expression.
4 Year Olds
As they prepare for kindergarten, four year olds learn pre-reading skills and letter recognition by sight and sound. Science units teach them about wind, magnets, water, and nature. Math and writing centers are added to the classroom curriculum. Art Enrichment and Spanish teachers come into the classroom monthly. Chapel is held once a week to introduce character traits such as honesty, obedience, perseverance, kindness, and friendliness.
