Simply put, children learn best by doing by exploring, playing and being hands-on learners. From creative art projects to a focus on phonics and math that makes learning to read and working with numbers fun, the preschool curriculum and activities at Gateway Academy is built for your enthusiastic learner.
Our Creative Kaleidoscope of Learning curriculum is based upon a monthly theme that incorporates Zoo-Phonics, Math Their Way, Science, Literacy skills, Social Studies, Fine Motor Skills/Handwriting, Cooking, Art, Music and Movement Activities. A daily schedule is followed and balances teacher directed learning with Discovery Centers throughout each classroom that offer children a wide variety of choices and play experiences. Each activity is matched to the characteristic ages and stages of ability for the age group, as well as the individual child.
Gateway Academy recognizes the importance of building self-esteem at a very young age. We encourage a positive sense of self by using praise, encouraging independence and building on their skills. Manners are also encouraged in the classroom throughout the day.
Studying other countries and cultures is a part of our monthly preschool curriculum and activities. Pictures, posters and books are displayed throughout the classrooms. Circle time discussions are enhanced with hands-on art, games and cooking activities. Children participate in Spanish language classes.
Other components of our curriculum include:
Baby Signs Babies communicating long before they can talk!
Early Reading Program Our phonics lessons help many children read before they get to Kindergarten
Handwriting Our lessons will have your child writing their name and more. You child will feel at ease as they transition into Kindergarten writing lessons.
Hands-on Math and in select schools Math Their Way Basic preschool math lessons come to life in our classrooms and activities
Spanish Current research shows that children 2 -12 years of age master a second language with an ease not seen in any other age groups. Our preschool Spanish classes lay the foundation during this distinct window of opportunity for the acquisition of another language.
