Preschool Curriculum

At Care Bear Day Care Preschool activities are offered on Monday Wednesday and Friday from 9:00 am to 11:30 am. Our Preschool curriculum is geared for children ages 3 to 5 years with children learning about shapes colors and numbers as they develop their pre-kindergarten skills."

Preschool activities include a letter of the week and number of the week along with the use of learning stations (such as a writing center to practice letters numbers and words) a dramatic play area and a kitchen set. Imaginative play is stressed including such childhood favorites as dress up and shopping. Occasionally our kitchen play station becomes a pretend pizza restaurant with variations in play geared to spark imagination and encourage participation.

A math center and science center help bring an important focus to our Preschool lesson plans with basic addition and subtraction matching numbers and the magic of discovery. Throughout the year our science station provides a variety of interesting learning experiences from the wonder of visualizing the world through a magnifying glass to the beauty of butterflies and the miracle of magnets.

More advanced students in the 5 year age range may opt to learn to read or improve their reading skills during our daily nap time.

Special events include guest speakers for the children such as bringing in a chiropractor to introduce the concept of the spine during S week.
