遊びながら学ぶプレキンダーサークルタイム - 資格を持った教師と一緒に幼稚園に備えましょう

This playful PreK circle time class will focus on PreK learning topics and preparing for kindergarten. Alphabet, early phonics, numbers 1-20, vocabulary, shapes, patterns, science and social emotional learning! 

This class will meet twice a week and there will be 2 themes a month that we will use to cover learning concepts. 

This class will focus on all areas of development:
Literacy: Letter names, beginning letter sounds, rhyming, syllables, pre reading concepts
Math: Counting, 1-1 correspondence, number identification, shapes, patterns, more or less. 
Fine Motor and Writing: Fine motor skills development, letter formation, writing letters, shapes, numbers, drawing and labeling. 
Speech and Language: Vocabulary, listening, speaking.
Social Emotional Development: Feelings, calming strategies, taking turns, friendship, kindness.
STEAM: Creativity, exploration, cause and effect
and more!

Each class will use pictures, games, songs and movement to work on these learning concepts throughout each circle time class.
Children will have a chance to talk and share with other learners as well. 

Each class will start with greetings a question of the day and a song. We will then move into learning activities and games. We will do movement and end the class with an exit question where children will get to share with other learners. 

A sample circle time would look like this:
Week 1: Welcome and School and Fall Theme 
Day 1: We will start with introductions and songs and answer a question of the day. Children will have a chance to share their answers with the class. We will introduce our theme of School and Fall and do an alphabet activity and letters of the week to go along with it. We will do a math and movement game next with "Falling leaves". We will end our circle time with a fun exit question.

Parents can check the classroom for additional, optional printable activities related to our theme after each week.
