For children with their 5 year-old birthdays from June-August, they may stay an extra year if recommended by the Pre-K staff and requested by parents. There are two Pre-K classrooms that have different teachers that teach the same material but in their own manner so that each year is fresh and different. This allows the children to be in classes with some of the children that stay back an extra year and have the familiarity with the staff and building.
For our walkers and two-year-old learners, the focus is to develop social skills. Curriculum is based on the principles of playful learning to develop attention span, follow simple directions and increase independence and self esteem.
We are very proud of the variety of educational programs that will stimulate your child and prepare them socially and intellectually for Kindergarten.
From the Walking program to the Pre-K program, Grace offers a creative and loving Christian-based environment for your child. An exciting educational curriculum follows the seasons and events of the year, plus pre-math, pre-reading, refinement of fine and gross motor skills development, cooking projects, social skills with their peers and staff, and Spanish/Sign Language. Our curriculum for three’s and Pre-K children includes the above, as well as, an introduction to Music & Movement that incorporates sign language and yoga, and weekly Bible Storytime with the church religious education team. Pre-K classes also enjoy enrichment in Geography and Mindfulness every week beginning in October of each year. Additionally, the Two’s, Three’s and Pre-K children receive phonics instruction to help facilitate early reading skills. All children are assessed in the spring of each year and 3s & Pre-K twice a year in fall and spring to determine their readiness for Kindergarten. Pre-K results are shared with parents during scheduled conferences to discuss their progress in our program and readiness for Kindergarten.
