Kindergarten

It is designed to provide a supportive and enriching environment for young learners. The focus is on fostering cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development, as well as preparing children for a smooth transition to formal kindergarten. Here's a general outline of what such a program may include:

Early Literacy:Introduce children to the alphabet, letter recognition, and phonemic awareness through engaging activities and stories. Encourage pre-reading skills and an interest in books.

Math Readiness: Develop basic numeracy skills, including counting, number recognition, and simple math concepts like addition and subtraction.

Social Skills: Teach children how to interact with peers, share, take turns, and communicate effectively. Promote emotional intelligence and empathy.

Fine and Gross Motor Skills: Offer activities that enhance both fine motor skills (e.g., cutting, drawing) and gross motor skills (e.g., running, climbing) to support physical development.

Creativity and Art: Encourage creative expression through art, music, and imaginative play. Foster a love for creativity and self-expression.

Science Exploration: Introduce basic science concepts through hands-on activities and simple experiments, sparking curiosity about the natural world.

Outdoor Play: Provide opportunities for outdoor play and exploration, which supports physical development and a connection to nature.

Structured Routine: Establish a daily routine that includes circle time, storytime, and opportunities for free play, structured activities, and group discussions.
