PRESCHOOL 4'S
The 4’s Preschool room serves 28 older preschoolers, ages 4-5. There is 1 teacher to every 10 preschoolers, with a group total of 28 preschoolers to 3 teachers.
​
Our 4's preschool classroom's main focus is preparing children for their next big transition, "big school!" This age is all about expressing themselves and daily activities in this classroom will help them to form their own ideas of how they want to play and what they want to create. Some of our school readiness activities include science experiments, name tracing, math, art projects, and free play.
We encourage freedom of choice with the building blocks to make good decisions. At this age, kids know how to cooperate with one another and we encourage team work as well as creating a sense of self.
