Our Young 5's program offers new units and themes, focusing on developmentally appropriate skills. It refines fundamental skills, boosts attention span, expands number and letter recognition, and improves penmanship. Children explore math concepts like graphing, money, time, and measurements while engaging in hands-on science activities. Social studies units cover self-awareness, friendship, geography, and history. Our revolving library and listening center promote reading skills with emerging reader books and taped stories. This program meets and exceeds state preschool standards and local kindergarten expectations.
