A Day in the Life of Our 3-Year-Old Preschoolers

At this age children encounter different modes of communication. Children learn to express themselves through different written symbols. The development of emergent literacy skills is supported by different proposals that include patterns, names, numbers, shapes and more. We encourage children in the discovery of the meaning print holds by creating provocations and situations that awaken their affinity for and interest toward written communication. Children are encouraged to recognize key ideas and details of stories, understand positional relations and vocabulary terms as well as developing hypotheses based on observations, questions, and investigations.

Inside Our Three-Year-Old Classroom

Encouraging Early Literacy

We introduce early literacy in engaging and fun ways. Through storytime, alphabet games, and music, children develop pre-reading skills such as letter recognition, vocabulary, and phonics. We encourage a love of reading that lasts a lifetime by creating a print-rich environment.

Sparking Creativity With Art and Sensory Play

Creativity is at the heart of our classrooms. Art, music, and sensory activities allow children to express themselves freely while improving fine motor skills and critical thinking. Our program integrates creative play with purposeful learning, fostering innovation and imagination.

Exploring the World Through STEAM

Young children are natural explorers, creators, and problem solvers. In our preschool program, children engage in age-appropriate STEAM activities exploring nature, designing and building structures, and experimenting with various materials. These hands-on, playful experiences introduce foundational concepts in science, technology, engineering, art, and math, while nurturing curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking skills.
