Three-Year-Old Program
Our Three-Year-Old curriculum focuses on instilling a love of learning in a safe and happy environment by encouraging students to use their natural inclination for discovery. During the Three-Year-Old year teachers continue to encourage each child to strengthen his/her independence and self-help skills. Our Three-Year-Olds develop social and emotional skills as they learn to play cooperatively with others and communicate within the classroom. New concepts such as letters, numbers and calendar math are introduced during Circle Time and centers. Our Three-Year-Old teachers introduce students to a letter of the week and children enjoy bringing in items from home that begin with that letter. Artwork, story time and center play integrate the curriculum’s learning objectives throughout the school day. Children participate in recess each day to develop gross motor skills, and yoga once a month. Special Area classes for this age group include Music, My Gym, Creative Movement, Christian Education, Science Lab, and Learning Center.
Teacher/Student Ratio 2:12-14.
