Young Pre

"Only where children gather is there any real chance of fun."

An environment of bright colors and appropriate centers provide optimum stimulation for the Young-Pre growth. Young Preschool children want to touch, taste, smell, hear, and test things for themselves. Our Young-Pre class teachers incorporates into the curriculum four of most important developmental areas for this age group: Social, Emotional, Cognitive and Physical growth. Many self help skills are also introduced to the children through daily routines and cooperative play. The children are taught to be more vocal resulting in language strong development. The children are guided toward appropriate behaviors through a non-judgmental atmosphere that offers consistency, children come to understand the balance between freedom and limits. At this age, children need to know that they are safe, both physically and emotionally, and that they are loved for whom they are. Noah’s Ark teachers want children to feel comfortable and safe while they explore, inquire, experiment, create, question, and celebrate. We strive to create an environment where they feel safe to learn and where they are respected, empowered, trusted and listened to. In short, a place to which they want to come back each day, because it’s theirs.
