Our school day is from 9:30 to 12:00. A snack will be
served once during the morning. A typical day would
include both active and quiet blocks of work time, such
as:
We start and end each day with a prayer and say a prayer
before our snacks.
A time to share experiences through conversations,
show-n-tell, learning games and stories.
A time to allow free exploration of the various centers
(blocks, manipulative, dramatic play, writing, art, etc.)
We ask parents to provide snacks for their child's class,
something nourishing. We ask for one box of prepackaged
snacks each month.
A time for science activities, story time, art projects
or other theme related activities. During nice weather
they might go out to the playground or play in the
sandbox.
Our music teacher teaches a sense of rhythm to music,
which is important for reading and listening skills. She
uses a variety of rhythm instruments. Many songs are
taught for our family programs.
Our gym teacher will work on Gross Motor Skills with each
child throughout the year: balance beam walking, skipping,
forward and backwards, catching a ball, etc. She uses
games, records, parachute play, a mini trampoline and
other sources to help the child toward their individual
growth accomplishments. In the spring we offer a Field
Day of games.
A creative drama teacher will visit once a month. She
will teach the children to act out her special story time.
