The main classroom is 39' x 20', giving children lots of area to comfortably learn and interact with others. Two teachers work with each class. The programs offered have been designed with particular attention to the difference between each age group. Striving to encourage individual work and responsibility, projects are typically designed to promote this goal. Children do a lot of cutting, pasting, coloring, playing with Play-Doh, pegs, etc. to improve Fine Motor Skills in addition to activities designed to improve balance and coordination referred to as Gross Motor Skills.
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.
