Learn-a-Lot
This transition/bridge class is designed for children that have completed a pre-kindergarten program and want an extra year to grow and mature before beginning kindergarten. This program extends and builds from our four-year-old pre-kindergarten program and offers pre-reading and math extension with science exploration. In addition, there are many activities with fine motor, vocabulary stimulation, listening and following of directions, arts and crafts, center play and socialization. This is a five-day program (M-F) that allows the children time to grow socially and emotionally while continuing to work on kindergarten readiness skills. Child/teacher ratio is up to 18:2.

Our Approach
Our philosophy is that children learn through play, so the themes and units each year reflect activities that enhance both mind and body. They may spend time learning about Bible heroes or what it might feel like to be a fish in the ocean. Children may experience a visit from fire fighters, Mother Goose, or a dentist. They learn about God's creation and are encouraged to celebrate His world. Our center-based program allows days filled with stories read by parents or teachers, hands-on manipulatives, gross and fine motor development, art, music, a Bible lesson, centers developed around the theme, and a variety of other adventures. With curriculum developmentally appropriate for each age, these are central to all areas of learning: arts, science, math, pre-reading, language, music and motor, and Biblical foundations. These are the stepping stones for our future generations, and each year builds on the next so the foundations are strong.
