Activities which promote readiness and language development include stories read and told by children and teachers, poems, drawings accompanied by stories dictated by children, and job charts in the classroom, all of which show language in print form. Talking with other children during play and talking informally with teachers, as well as dramatic play enhance language development.

  • Pre-school 4 - 5 years

    Four- and five-year-olds are all about self-expression, and are beginning to consider what others are thinking and feeling, too. They need a strong underpinning of natural curiosity, cooperation, confidence, communication skills, and a healthy dose of learning excitement as they get ready to go to kindergarten.
    At Adventrue Land, our credentialed educators know that research shows early literacy competency is a strong indicator of not only literacy, but also overall academic success once a student reaches school age. So our pre school curriculum concentrates upon literacy-awareness activities, such as: letter recognition and letter sounds; recognition of classmate names; storytelling; story development anticipation; print concepts; letter writing and early spelling through phonics; writing; and other literacy opportunities within classroom learning centers. More structured planning, lower ratios and regular routines help establish the stability and consistency students need to feel sure of themselves, and help move them toward the scheduled environment of school. Classroom learning centers are altered weekly to correlate to the learning plan, and sustain students' interest and involvement.
