Specific, planned activities occur within the centers. Centers include art and craft, manipulatives such as puzzles and table games, blocks, books, and dramatic play kitchen. Each class has circle time with stories, songs, and finger plays. Language development is an important part of our program This is accomplished through songs, stories, and verbal communication with the children, individually, and also during circle time. Math concepts are developed through the use of shapes, counting concrete items and becoming familiar with the written number.
Children also learn the days of the week and month with the calendar.
They also mark the weather each day. There is snack time and, weather permitting, outdoor play time. Cooking is also a part of each class. It is usually done as a part of a theme. Children are expected to follow the routine of the class.
