Fred L Wilson's Wee Wonders

The Kannapolis City Schools Pre-Kindergarten, Wee Wonders, is designed to provide a rich,
child centered, literacy-focused learning environment to ensure that all children in Kannapolis
City Schools enter school ready to learn. The program attempts to provide those key
experiences, especially in the areas of language and early literacy development that form the
foundation for early school success.
Guiding Principles for Kannapolis City Schools Pre-Kindergarten Program:
Cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development are interrelated in young
children, and all developmental areas must be addressed.
Each child is unique with an individual pattern of timing, growth, and development.
Young children construct knowledge and understanding through their interactions with
materials in their environment and working with adults and other children.
Childrens learning moves from a concrete, personal understanding to conventional
understandings through awareness, exploring, asking questions, and playing.
Children have a need to make sense of their experiences and are motivated to learn by
their interests and natural curiosity.
