Welcome to the Three and Four Year Old Classrooms
The Butterfly and Monkey Rooms

In these mixed-age classrooms one head teacher and an assistant work with the children.  Our goal is to provide a loving and secure environment where we encourage the development of each child’s positive self-image and social skills.

Through hands-on activities we build on the foundation laid by the two year old Penguin class the previous year by:

• Further developing the learning of colors and shapes
• Increasing literacy through finger plays, rhymes, books and songs
• Recognizing letters, printing letters, writing each child’s name, phonics
• Developing fine and gross motor skills through a variety of activities
• Providing ample opportunity for imaginative play
• Improving social skills such as cooperation, taking turns and being a friend
• Developing math skills such as counting and sequencing

We create opportunities for each child to feel success by emphasizing their strengths and abilities.
