Lindsay and Carly work to ensure that each child is the main character in their own preschool life. They provide support while creating a developmentally-appropriate and engaging experience.

1.      Social Development: Understanding and Expressing Emotions
Through interactions with peers, children learn to understand and appropriately express their own emotions. We introduce and gently guide them in recognizing and expressing their own emotions.

2.      Language Development: Learning New Words in Daily Life
Through storytelling, conversations, and activities, children expand their vocabulary and use new words in context. We also emphasize building strong relationships with teachers to support language acquisition and feeling comfortable at preschool.

3.      Cognitive Development: Understanding Cause and Effect
Our toys, classroom layout and scenery change with our themed units. By using various play materials, children explore cause-and-effect relationships and solve simple problems. We encourage confidence through successful experiences and support the development of critical thinking skills.

4.      Physical Development: Enhancing Physical Abilities
Activities such as running, jumping, and climbing help develop gross motor skills, while arts and crafts, building blocks, and puzzles improve fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

5.      Fostering Creativity: Valuing Imagination and Expression
We promote creativity through imaginative play and role-playing activities. Children learn about social roles and situations, enhancing their understanding and self-expression.

In the Little Friends class, we help students learn to participate with interest and focus during group activities so that they are ready to engage as active learners in our KP class  and beyond. We are laying the groundwork for a lifelong love of learning.
