KinderKorner
Enrichment
Center provides a structured
learning environment for preschool children ages 3-5 years old. We have created
a Kindergarten Readiness curriculum with a combination of styles &
techniques borrowed from the Montessori program, Wake County Smart Start &
More at Four programs, and personal instruction experience. Our center
incorporates learning & fun into a structured, age-appropriate curriculum
that includes: circle time, music, physical fitness, arts & crafts, science
& exploration, and other key fundamentals to enhance the minds of our
preschoolers.
Our classroom is divided into learning centers where a variety of
hands-on materials and meaningful activities are available for the
children. Centers are designed to meet specific academic goals and are
both curriculum-oriented (math, science, writing, etc.) and theme-based
(Fire Safety, Family, Personal Health, etc.). Students will routinely
work in small groups to actively practice, apply, and extend skills and
concepts introduced during circle or group time. During our daily circle
time, the teacher initiates discussions about various topics, special
themes, and group projects. Children learn through singing, movement,
show and tell, and story time. Emphasis is placed on helping the
children learn how to follow directions, problem solving/predicting
outcomes, and promoting listening skills and self-expression. At times,
speakers will be invited to share a special skill or cultural tradition.
