Pre-K

We begin the year in Pre-K with one priority that stands above all else, which is to build relationships with the children. With strong relationships providing a solid foundation, we can develop a warm, collaborative, and dynamic classroom community, where each child’s passions will be nurtured, and their love of learning will grow. Children are seen as individuals and are given opportunities to follow their instincts and direct their learning. At the same time, we provide the teacher guidance, structure, and challenges that children need to thrive and grow as learners.

Kindergarten

Our kindergarten environment is rich in intentional literacy opportunities. We teach literacy skills in small-group lessons, devoting one day of each week to journal writing, with the goal of having the children write simple sentences and stories. The children learn about sounds in words and strengthen their skills in spelling and handwriting. On the other days, we focus on the multiple strands involved in reading acquisition, which include phonemic awareness, alphabetic principle, phonics, sight vocabulary, attention to reading strategies through simple text, and comprehension.
