Toddler 2

Ages 19 to 24 months

The world of discovery continues in our Toddler 2 room. With stronger motor skills and expanding attention spans, these children can continue their development through activities such as songs, finger plays, stories, and circle time. In addition to music, our science curriculum begins in this classroom. The joy can literally be seen on the children's faces as they discover new possibilities in their world.

Spoken language begins developing at this age, and famously, so does independent will! We encourage these older toddlers through the challenges of peer interactions and emotional regulation. Rather than shutting down a child's emotion, we patiently reinforce positive (and safe) self-expression. Having a consistent routine is one way we help older toddlers know what they can expect from us, and what we expect from them.

We consistently evaluate each child based on age-appropriate benchmarks in order to assess individual growth and development. This allows us to communicate with families and set realistic goals that will set your child up for success as they prepare to move up to the Explorers room.

Explorers

Ages 30 to 39 months (2.5 - 3.25 years)

This classroom is named after the developmental stage of its children. It is around this time that children develop a deeper sense of curiosity about how and why things work the way they do.

Our interactive curriculum stimulates the whole child. Daily activities include such things as art, puzzles, blocks, games, imaginative play (dress up and role playing), reading, and lots of time outside! In addition to our music and science programs, these children take part in to our weekly sports and movement programs (all included with tuition).

Routine and structure are extremely important for this age group so we make sure to incorporate both into each child’s day. We consistently communicate our expectations with children to minimize surprises or disappointments (which can be difficult to handle at this age). We actively partner with parents during this time to assist in toilet training. After their time in the Explorers Rooms, these children are fully ready for their transition into Preschool.

Pre-K

Ages 4 to 6 years

In our Pre-Kindergarten class, our teachers work closely with each child to sharpen all of the skills they will need for full Kindergarten readiness. It is our ultimate goal to ensure all of our students are emotionally, physically, cognitively, and behaviorally prepared for their move into the school system.

Academic development in the Pre-K Room includes exposure to learning opportunities such as: basic language development in Spanish and French, writing the full alphabet and structuring the writing of words, sounding out the reading of words, counting to 100, writing numbers to 50, and developing basic addition and subtraction skills.

However, none of this academic development takes the place of Pre-K kids to have fun!! We spend a ton of time outside doing things like running, climbing, kicking balls, gardening, having picnics, and letting kids be kids. Creativity, exploration, self-expression, and fun remain the cornerstones of our Pre-K curriculum.

It is SO very hard to say good-bye to these children as they leave for Kindergarten (especially those we have watched grow since infancy), yet we know they are well prepared to begin the next phase in their lives!
