TK Program
TK Learning Environment
The TK curriculum focusses for your child to be prepared to go to Kindergarten. With a maximum of 10 children in a class the teacher has many opportunities throughout the day to teach skills children need to master by the time Kindergarten starts.
Your child works on writing skills using the Handwriting Without Tears program. We work on writing skills, phonics and have a "letter of the week" that correlates with share day. There will be simple Spanish words that are taught as well.
Your child will be practicing writing numbers 1 to 20 and counting to 100. He/she may even be doing simple adding and subtracting. Phone numbers, special science experiments and learning about weather, magnets, recycling, dental health, body parts and much more will be done during science time.
Art is taught with a wide variety of mediums. Exceptional creativity is the goal. Your child can, in their own way, experience the joy of creativity. Non directed, and no precut art projects allows for individualization according to your child's unique perspective. It is all about the process of the art and their vision when it comes to projects here at Creative Years!
Music, an essential part of our curriculum, will expose your child to a wide variety of music styles. Your child will sing, dance, play instruments and participate in marching bands. We also have a professional Music Teacher who comes every other week and brings a special curriculum designed especially for young students.
Throughout the day, in all social situations with friends, problem solving and making independent choices is encouraged. As your child is given opportunities to solve his/her own problems, they will become more independent and confident with their peers. This will help them greatly in the future with new situations.
