幼稚園、プレスクール、幼稚園のフルカリキュラムサークルタイム 春学期 週2回

Welcome to an inclusive, loving, and FUN circle time class! This class is perfect for any learner who is ready to build foundational skills, or those who may benefit from a fun way to review and solidify skills they have already gained; great as a supplement or for homeschool families. Many different learning styles and modes will be incorporated in every class meeting. Weekly themes will be utilized to incorporate high-interest learning and keep learners excited for each and every week! Lessons will include music, movement, fingerplays, chants, rhymes, crafts, sharing, and more! Lessons will be taught using props, posters, visuals, and some (limited) slides so that students will get the most interaction with real-world people and learning possible.
