Special emphasis is placed upon listening skills and the ability to follow directions. These skills are vital tools to their continued education and every day life. The Nursery School program also introduces children to various occupations that are important to their health and well being. This interaction provides the opportunity to not only meet these people, but hear, see, and touch the equipment used in their professions. It also helps to reduce the level of fear and anxiety they might have when they encounter them in a real-life situation.
All children enjoy special outings.
With that in mind, classes enjoy a variety of trips and activities throughout the school term. A typical day of Nursery School is filled with lots of learning and fun. One day they might paint with colored ice cubes or make turkeys out of handprints. The day may include a winter picnic in our big fellowship hall or making butterflies after tracing their feet. Regardless of the days' activity, Nursery School at Zion is designed to educate children in new and interesting ways.
