What We Do
Preparedness
We recognize the need for preschoolers to be active and move a lot, but we also take the opportunity to teach them how to work in a classroom setting, learn to follow directions, interact respectfully with teachers and other students, and work together on activities.
Independence
Our early education programs for preschool children give young kids the opportunity to learn how to be independent from their parents in a safe, nurturing learning environment with teachers who care about their success.
Vocabulary
Children between the ages of 3 and 5 add anywhere from 900 to 2,500 words to their vocabulary during that crucial time period, and begin using more complex sentence structures. With the kind of varied educational approach we use at Explorations, every child will have plenty of opportunities to learn new words as we learn about science, gardening, cooking, music and movement, yoga, arts and crafts, and more!
Early Learning
We begin teaching our preschool students colors, shapes, letters and numbers at an early age so they can develop a comfortable familiarity with math and reading concepts. Our 4 year old preschool / Pre-K students learn to write their full names, as well as learning some basic math concepts and having exposure to sight words.
Motor Skill Dev
Through arts and crafts activities such as coloring, drawing, cutting and pasting, and more, many preschool activities help kids develop their fine motor skills. These are abilities that will come in handy when the child begins learning to write and do math.
