Children In Our Preschool Program Love Our Unique
“Learning Centers” !
Preschool at Young Scholars Academy is not only a blast but has a purpose! At approximately 2½ years of age, a unique period of growth happens and we want to partner with you and your family to nurture this growth and let is soar!
You can expect to see a rapid increase in the ability to learn concepts and skills and be sure to prepare yourselves for a mass amount of questions that are bound to come your way!
For this group, the capacity of verbal language is multiplying at an accelerating pace. Children of this age respond to intriguing critical thinking activities and are delighted when they complete a task successfully.
Creative Preschool Curriculum
Our goal here at Young Scholars Academy is to challenge the kids but do so in a way that is going to make the most impact (they’re only kids once!) This is one reason why we use Creative Curriculum in our classrooms.
With the curriculum being so hands on, we are able to continuously assess the children based off of the lessons taught and adjust and proceed accordingly. It is wonderful to know where the children are at individually making sure everyone is being challenged based on where they are at developmentally!
At our child care learning center provide developmental emphasis through hands-on discovery experiences. You can see in each area of curriculum, those areas being; science & sensory, math, and language & literacy.
The certified teachers at Young Scholars Academy provide activities that are designed to complement age-appropriate skills.
Your child will love the “Learning Centers” at Young Scholars Academy, since they are well-equipped areas of special age appropriate activities.
These child care centers are also set up to be theme based to follow our school year scope and sequence. A scope and sequence is something our Providers use to help guide our teachers when they are creating their curriculum each week.
Preschool Learning Through Outdoor Interactive Play
The gross motor activities are accommodated with a unique dramatic playroom called Exploration Station and an age appropriate playground.
The separate preschool playground is provided for the children to go outdoors for fresh air daily (of course, weather permitting!).
The large and kid friendly playground utilizes artificial turf and provides a four-foot fall zone around the cement bicycle track.
Children have various play materials such as tricycles, wagons and other materials to further develop their gross motor skills. We are proud to have each of the centers in our classrooms also on the playground which allows for the children to take their learning beyond the classroom!
Here at Young Scholars Academy, we also know how much kids like to climb! Our preschool program has a great activity area including the climber! The climber provides your child with unique learning experiences that daycare teachers cannot teach them.
Using the climber also promotes friendships and social interaction, as well as, the gross motor skills. The climber has a ten-foot fall zone around to protect the child while allowing them to perfect gross motor skills.
Like our preschool classrooms we invite you to come and get a hands-on look at the room and meet our teachers and take a look at our nationally-accredited program!
