Kid's Experiencing Their First Year of Learning
Pre-K Room
The Pre-K program will be a bright, cheerful environment where discoveries, friendships, and growth will be developed. Pre-K is a foundational year because, for most children, it provides their initial exposure to school and sets the tone for their educational career. Pre-K helps children experience the workload and exposes children to a kindergarten curriculum. Pre-K gives children an extra year to get ready for kindergarten and their future in school. School readiness is a good predictor of long-term achievement. School readiness refers to the development of cognitive, behavioral, and social skills that helps create a smooth transition into formal school. There are four key Dimensions of readiness.
Four Key Dimensions of Readiness:
Language and Literacy
Children learn about language by listening to words. A growing vocabulary strengthens a child's readiness for reading.
Thinking Skills
Children are natural scientist and their first experiments teach them about the world. This helps them get ready for math and science.
Self-Control
A child who is socialized to problem solve through words, taking turns, and paying attention becomes ready to be in a classroom.
Self-Confidence
Confident children are ready to learn. Confidence helps children recover quicker from mistakes and gain more curiosity to learn.
