Whale Class

Older Three-Year Olds are more secure and ready for a higher level challenge. Our Intermediates have a lot of opportunities to explore learning centers and participate in dramatic play. Your child will learn to recognize letters and letter sounds, add two groups of concrete objects by counting and begin to understand the concepts of yesterday, today and tomorrow. This well-rounded program also incorporates a Spanish-language program.

Language & Literacy

Children experiment with different letter sounds and start to explore characters and story plots.

Social-Emotional

Group activities help children learn to follow directions, take turns and develop friendships.

Creative Expression

Children clap, move and sing songs; create art by folding, cutting and coloring; and act out lyrics to favorite songs.

Mathematics

Children explore number concepts and practice comparing, classifying and measuring. They begin to use a number line.

Wellness

Children practice fine-motor skills with puzzles and improve balance through movement and fun activities.

Science & Social Studies

Children perform simple experiments, learn about the weather, and compare personal characteristics.
