Inspired Exploration
At 2 ½ years old our toddlers move up to our Preschool classroom. At this age the focus shifts more to planned curriculum along with learning through play and senses. We shift focus to tasks that are more involved and age appropriate for the individual children in our preschool classroom. While still learning through play and hands on activities they gain autonomy and are encouraged to use more critical thinking skills throughout the day and learning activities. Preschoolers are ready to tackle more challenging tasks and we promote self-help skills along with helping them to deal with emotions in an appropriate manner. The goal is to help them with skills such as pre-writing and letter recognition so that when they head off to “big school” they will be ready for all that Kindergarten has to offer.
