3 Year Olds

Our 3 year old preschool class engages the children in a variety of activities and lessons to build strong foundations in numbers, letters and sounds. Children gain more confidence as they continue to grow in independence and expand their knowledge of the world around them.

Circle Time

Circle Time is an opportunity for social development in a group setting and prepares the children for their day. Through a variety of interactive songs and rhymes, the children are engaged in learning about the calendar and weather, and other new topics.

Daily Worship and Bible

We start off each day in daily worship and prayer. The children are energized with singing and dancing, and develop a love for worshipping God.

Motor Development

Children engaged in centers daily where they are provided with various hands-on manipulatives and activities where they can focus on fine or gross motor skills. By the end of the year, the children are comfortable with using a pencil and tracing.

Social Development

The children gain greater social skills throughout the day as they are learning how to follow directions, be independent, and share with others. The teachers model good manners and vocabulary to help the children express themselves with words.

Language

Our 3 year old program focuses on a different letter and sound each week to help reinforce phonics. The children are excited to begin identifying beginning sounds, and classifying the world around them.

Number Sense

Our 3 year olds are becoming more curious about counting and numbers. Using manipulatives and counters help to begin counting and organizing up to 10.

Specials and Extra-Curriculars

Music

Children have a great interest in music at a young age. Exposure to different sounds, rhythms and patterns help the child to prepare for mathematics and language. Music and Movement also encourages children to build better hand-eye coordination, and strengthen the fine and gross motor skills.
