About Our School

Arrival/Table Top Activities: Staff assists children in making the transition from home to school. Each child independently selects from several activities set out for that day by the teacher which help develop fine motor skills.

Circle Time: Language skills and readiness skills are emphasized as children and teachers plan together for the day's activities.

Center Time: Children choose from activities provided and planned for in each of the classroom centers: dramatic play, blocks, table toys, art, science, writing, sensory table, library and computer. Learning is child-centered and facilitated by the Early Childhood Staff through children's play and their natural interests.

Snack: Nutritional snacks are provided. Snack time encourages self-help skills, good manners, social interaction with peers, and language and communication.

Music/Movement: Large motor skills are enhanced through music as well as physical activities enjoyed both in the classroom and outdoors.

Story Times: Pre-reading skills are developed as the teacher reads books to children in large and small groups, emphasizing language and listening skills and encouraging active participation through the use of creative dramatics.

Dismissal: Children are encouraged to develop independence in the area of self-help skills.
