I Spy Room

This room is for our youngest "Villagers", beginning at 18 months until 24 months. In this room, we concentrate on potty training, social skills, gross motor skills, and sensory play. This age group naps from 12:30pm to 3:00pm.
Tumbling Twos Room

This room is for children from 24 - 36 months of age. The curriculum in this room focuses on social skills, gross motor skills, color and shape recognition as well as beginning letter and number sounds. We provide reading, art projects, group and individual activities in addition to the Montessori curriculum. This age group naps from 12:30PM to approximately 3:00PM. We also assist in potty training for children who have not yet mastered this skill.
Winker Room

This is our 3 year old room. The curriculum for this age group helps prepare the children for our Rising 4 room, reinforcing the skills learned in the Tumbling Twos room. In addition to those skills, they begin to introduce number and letter recognition and concentrate more on fine motor skills. They will learn such skills as how to cut and how to hold a pencil, as well as name recognition. They also introduce the concept of the calendar and we teach cultural awareness and science. They still take naps from 12:30PM to approximately 3:00PM. Children in this class are expected to be potty trained.
Rising 4 Room

The curriculum in this class builds upon the previous rooms, all with an eye to preparing the children for the Pre-K classroom. All the children in this room must be 3 1/2 year to 4 years old, completely potty trained and ready to give up naps. This classroom will concentrate more on letter and number recognition and writing, and we teach cultural awareness and science. They will build upon their fine motor skills and begin writing their names and do more classroom oriented group activities. The children will NOT take naps in this room in order to help ease the transition into the Pre-K classroom.
Pre - K Room

This is our preschool room for children 4 - 5 years of age who will be going to Kindergarten the following year. Our main focus in this room is on Kindergarten readiness. They will be building further on the skills learned in the previous rooms, and will now learn how to write the letters and make the connection between letter sounds and words. They will begin simple math concepts as well as a broader understanding of the world around them with cultural awareness, science, music and geography lessons. You can track the progress made by your child through progress reports you receive at the beginning of the year and in the spring. Children should leave this room with all the tools needed to excel in Kindergarten and beyond.
