Preschool Program - Ages 3 years to Pre-K As
children reach the age of 3 years and indicate signs of readiness, they
will begin the transition into the preschool program. Our preschool
ratio is 1:10. Children are sponges of learning at these ages and
we've designed our preschool program to expose children to various
learning opportunities in their environment. There are two aspects to
our preschool program that we feel provide a well rounded education
experience for the children. In our Preschool 1 Classroom, children
will participate in teacher guided individual and small group
Montessori activities in various areas of study including: sensorial,
math, language, practical life, science, art, geography, reading and
writing. In our Preschool 2 classroom, children will participate in
other learning activities using various small muscle materials
including: puzzles, small blocks, musical instruments, dramatic play,
writing practice and arts and crafts. Children will also be engaged in
various large muscle activities including large blocks, balance beams,
music and movement activities and more. Both of our preschool
classrooms will emphasize the Letter of the Week
as well as various themes of study. Preschool children will spend
time outdoors, and will also have a quiet period of rest each day.
Added
to their regular classroom activities is a weekly yoga class, a
bi-weekly visit from the Dakota County Bookmobile, various on-site
visits from firefighters, dental workers, etc. and various off-site
field trips throughout the year.
