Preschool Prep & Play

(2 years old)

This class is perfect for two year olds who will be beginning preschool/maternelle the following year, as it will expose them to a variety of materials and concepts that they are likely to tackle in their first year of preschool. The purpose of this class is to allow them to work on important skills like very early literacy & mathematics, being in a group/classroom environment, gently expanding their attention span, and building the social skills with their peers that are vital to the early schooling years. This will all be done in a natural, learning-through-play environment, with multiple spaces set up for them to explore independently or alongside a parent or teacher, with additional teacher-directed activities mixed in as well. Parents are encouraged to sign their children up for this class on a regular basis so that their children’s comfort and skills continue to grow as the months progress, and parents will be able to step back more and more as the weeks go on (able to enjoy a cup of coffee and a chat with other parents!) so that their child’s autonomy in a learning environment continues to grow.
