Jaguars: 3 and 4 year olds can be extremely quick and smart. During this year our curriculum will focus on preschool topics and getting the children ready for kindergarten. Teachers will introduce a more structured environment but will still focus on self-directed learning and play to meet the individual needs of each child. Areas of focus will be spelling their names, beginning writing, cutting with scissors, music, gym, etc.
Studies have shown that 95% of a child's brain is formed within the first 3 years of life, so in this year we will spend time on many different topics and expose the children to as many diverse experiences as possible.
A typical day in the Jaguar classroom would include:
- Free Time
- Clean Up Time!
- Circle Time
- Learning Activity: Activity or art/music project
- Story Time
- Quiet Time
- Lunch Time and Snack Time
- Outdoor Time
- Brush Teeth
- Logs will go home daily so parents know what their child participated in, how he/she played, ate, slept, etc.
