If
you are interested in knowing if your child is ready to participate in the Universal
Pre-K program you must consider the following: - child's
ability to adjust to the demands of school
- Basic
abilities and knowledge in language and math
- Be
able to interact with others positively, pay attention, remember lessons taught,
follow a teacher's directions, finish tasks, and practice independently what they
have learned.
- they
must be able to control their emotions.
- A
child's readiness for school also depends on their physical health
Through
our programs we teach children the skills they need to learn to read, do math,
make progress in science and other areas as well as begin to understand the world
and how it works. This helps children become more familiar with books, words and
ways to use language, numbers and problem-solving strategies.
Preschool programs add to the social skills children need to get the most out
of school - for instance, being able to pay attention in class and how to interact
with peers. Preschool programs also offer an early opportunity to identify and
begin addressing special needs. |
