Children's Village Preschool Program
Our preschool program at Children's Village at Fisher's Landing is made up of two
classes, the Oak Leaves and the Maples.
These two classes have similar daily
schedules and share outdoor play times.
The Oak Leaves
Children in this class are between the ages of 2 ½ years and 3 ½ years. Depending on age, children may spend two years in this classroom preparing for our Pre-K class.
The Maples
The Maples class is our Pre-Kindergarten class. All children in this class will be moving on to Kindergarten the following year so therefore must be 4 years old by September 1.
Preschool Curriculum
Here at Children's Village at Fisher's Landing we have created our own original
preschool curriculum that is based on sound developmental theory, extensive early
childhood education experience and the individual needs of the children enrolled in
our program. Our highly trained teachers work as partners with our Education
Director to create a relevant and dynamic program based on the emergent
interests and educational needs of the children.
Each year, our curriculum begins with a stimulating theme-based curriculum
as a jumping off point. As our teaching teams and the families enrolled in
our program get to know one another and become comfortable with our
daily routines we begin to enrich our curriculum and fine tune our focus
to meet the unique needs of our school community. Our goal is to
implement a curriculum that combines the approaches of emergent
curriculum and theme-based learning as well as many
foundational concepts of Montessori classrooms. By
combining these methods, we are able to provide a balance
of teacher directed and child directed activities as well as
opportunities for thorough and meaningful learning.
