OUR LESSON PLAN
PRE-K 3 CLASS
The Pre-K 3 curriculum is anchored by the Handwriting Without Tears, “Get Set for School” program. This is a play-based curriculum that offers a full pre-writing lesson plan, utilizing hands-on materials that build critical skills in both early math and literacy. The three-year-old classes will also enjoy using the Frog Street Press, “Sing and Read” series, which brings age-appropriate literacy instruction through character based alphabet big books. A developmental math program that involves tabletop materials and experiential activities promotes a “learn by doing” philosophy, strengthening early math concepts and number recognition. The “Can-Do” curriculum involves parents and families while helping to build confidence and social /emotional skills for our preschoolers.
PRE-K 4 CLASS
Our four-year-old classes continue Handwriting Without Tears, advancing to the “Kick Start Kindergarten” workbook set. “The Letter People” phonics program further strengthens early reading skills. Our Older Four curriculum expands upon those concepts using the McGraw-Hill, “Beginning to Read, Write and Listen” program. Both workbooks prepare children for pre-k and kindergarten by introducing capital and lower-case letter formation and early sight words. Evan Moor PreK Math workbooks are partnered with manipulatives for early math skill development. A social/emotional weekly theme is presented providing a flexible but regular schedule that includes sharing and conversation time, stories, songs and fingerplays. Art activities and crafts encourage creativity and self-expression. A spacious gym allows for indoor large motor development. Our bright playroom nurtures pretend play and social skills and allows for movement throughout the day. In-school presentations and visitors bring excitement to our children as they prepare for the world.
