THREE YEAR OLD EXPLORERS PROGRAM
Our 3 Year Old Program meets ever Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning from 8:45 am till 11:15 pm.
The 3 Year Old program is designed to teach through fun and play. The classroom setting enables the teachers to engage students in simple rule following with an emphasis on kindness and sharing. Students are taught to put on their own coats, retrieve and place paperwork in their backpacks, handle zippers and other activities that help them to become more independent. They learn to raise their hands to ask questions, learn to clean up together, practice quiet time and walking quietly in hallways. Achieving these skills and goals are necessary as our little learners continue their exciting educational journey on to the 4 Year Old Preschool Program.
Learning involves circle time, reading circle, crafts and worksheets, practicing fine motor skills and following directions. Our students work on shape, color and number themes and enjoy learning through music, song and dance. They visit the gym once a week and enjoy the outside enclosed playground. Extended Care is available.
