EDUCATION WITH FUN
Preschool is a tremendous time for growing children. It's a time when they are filled with energy and curiosity about everything around them, a time when they are developing their sense of independence, and a time that will truly shape the type of learner, and type of person they will become.
Our number one priority for our preschool program is to help your child feel confident and prepared for kindergarten, while at the same time give you complete confidence in every aspect of your child's Clubhouse Kids experience.
As with our infant program and our toddler program, our Preschool program is based on what leading research points to as the best practices for early learning, growth, and continued development to best prepare children for that approaching step into kindergarten.
PRESCHOOL TWOS
Our two-year-olds preschool classroom is a very active classroom environment, focusing on engaging bodies, hands, minds, and imaginations with abundant opportunities to move, explore, and discover new experiences, all helping to create a foundation for later learning. Children are engaged in activities surrounding:
- Music & Movement - develop gross-motor skills through climbing, jumping and dancing
- Language & Literacy Center - a comfortable area filled with plenty of books, puppets, and writing materials
- Art & Science Center - an area with a variety of art supplies, and sensory materials (water, sand, fabric, etc.)
- Pretend Center - an interactive area where children work and play together with home-like materials, such as play-food, play-carpenter's tools, baby dolls, dress-up clothes, and housekeeping items
- Block & Math Center - children learn to work with their hands using blocks, cars, trucks, puzzles, and more
- Safe Space - a safe, quiet place in the classroom where children can go to relax and spend alone time, as needed.
Curriculum & Milestones
The four developmental areas of focus at this point are:
- Social & Emotional - The ability to interact with others and their increasing awareness of themselves and their emotions; understanding of their relationships with others, such as family, friends, community members
- Language/Communication - The ability to communicate effectively using sounds, expressions, body language, and finally, oral and written language; ability to understand and respond to the communication of others
- Cognitive Development - The ability to think critically and creatively, understand their world, and solve problems
- Physical Development - The ability to coordinate and control large and small muscle movements; increasing awareness of health and safety concepts.
PRESCHOOL THREES
Upon reaching three-years-old, each child’s confidence level sets the stage for everything they do in this year, and the next. Building on that self-esteem is critical to their success. Our three-year-olds preschool classroom is designed as a learning community, where your child not only builds confidence and other skills vital to success in kindergarten, but also gains a strong respect for others.
Curriculum & Milestones
The four developmental areas of focus at this point remain:
- Social & Emotional - The ability to interact with others and their increasing awareness of themselves and their emotions; understanding of their relationships with others, such as family, friends, community members
- Language/Communication - The ability to communicate effectively using sounds, expressions, body language, and finally, oral and written language; ability to understand and respond to the communication of others
- Cognitive Development - The ability to think critically and creatively, understand their world, and solve problems
- Physical Development - The ability to coordinate and control large and small muscle movements; increasing awareness of health and safety concepts.
Throughout the Clubhouse Kids preschool years, your child will begin the process of transitioning into an independent learner, building on the previous skills learned, and preparing for the remaining skills to come.
