Early Learners Themes!

Check out the fun things we'll be studying in our "Early Learners" class group this upcoming year!  Every day we do math, literacy, art, and thematic science activities as well as a full hour of child-directed play and half an hour of outside play, giving your child a balance between teacher-directed and child-directed learning activities.  Children especially look forward to our "Friday Fun Days" where we have special activities, class visitors, and field trips!
