Our Afternoon Program
The JK Readiness program
offers a larger teacher
directed component than the
preschool morning program.
Children will be involved
with a wide variety of
activities and materials,
like previously listed under
the morning program
description, however, each
child will be required to
complete the assigned task
of the day and print his/her
name, to an age appropriate
level. We are introducing
alphabet phonics; each week
will feature a letter that
is accompanied by a song, an
action, and an activity to
support recognition of the
letter sound. There will be
a focus on scissor skills.
Children may still choose
activities of their liking
as well, as we believe that
child-directed play is a
fundamental part of
learning. The goal of our
afternoon program is to act
as a head start for a child
in their pre-JK year.
