GOALS:

Our main goal for this young age group is to make them feel comfortable away from home, in a school setting. We will work on large and small motor skills, language
development and color recognition.
Preschool - 3 -4 Years:
We will work with this group on lengthening their attention span, recognition of numbers and letters, science, math, language development and definition of motor skills.
Pre-Kindergarten:
We will meet the very important challenge of preparing these children for Kindergarten. Math, science, eye-hand coordination and sequencing are just a few of the skills
these children will begin to master.
