A Pre-School & Day Care For Working Parents

PRE-KINDERGARTEN GOALS
Dear Parent,
Below are some general goals for our Pre-Kindergarten program. Our weekly units will include: math, language arts, science, social studies, health, art, music, gross-motor activities, fine-motor activities, dramatic-play activities, story time and a scholastic newspaper. We will celebrate with special theme parties, invited special guest, planned field trips and monthly visits to the Library. We plan a special Grandparent's Day in the Fall and a Parent program in May. We offer Tumbling, Dance lessons and School pictures.
Our weekly activities will be done individually, in small groups, or in a whole group setting. Our curriculum allows children both free choice and guided exploration. We create a week filled with learning, discovery and fun!
