They explore different textures while developing fine motor skills. Children are encouraged to express themselves and to demonstrate creativity. They are encouraged to develop a sense of self, and engage in activities that promote a sense of belonging.

Children will have the opportunity to explore multiple areas of learning and growing. They learn letter recognition and link letters to sounds as we teach them to begin to read. They use and practice with research-based literacy and numeracy materials that spark their interest, and have multiple opportunities to learn with hands-on resources. In addition, they begin to learn early mathematics concepts such as counting, sorting, and understanding simple addition and subtraction. They are encouraged to develop skills such as kindness, cooperation, courtesy, being helpful, and independence.

Children are encouraged to think independently and express individuality. Their day is filled with creating, experimenting, continuing to build on social skills, and understanding what friendships are. As they prepare, they are exposed to a deeper learning of phonological awareness, phonemic awareness, and the understanding of graphemes.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><ul><li>moving from learning to understanding the relationship between letters and sounds<\/li><li>creating sentences with words<\/li><li>recognizing their first name<\/li><li>writing their first name<\/li><li>practicing holding a pencil<\/li><li>practicing writing sentences (even scribbling)<\/li><li>ability to look at a picture and provide a description<\/li><li>beginning to learn phonemic awareness and phonics<\/li><li>hearing, identifying, and manipulating individual phonemes in spoken words and print<\/li><li>introduction to encoding and decoding in literacy<\/li><li>practice with numeracy concepts moving from basic shapes to two &amp; three dimensional shapes<\/li><li>counting from 1 up through 50<\/li><li>counting by 1s, 5s, and 10s up to 50<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"e-n-tab-content-1904470147\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-tab-title-1904470147\" data-tab-index=\"7\" style=\"--n-tabs-title-order: 7;\" class=\" elementor-element elementor-element-91263cb e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"91263cb\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f9b64d0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f9b64d0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c2e782 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"7c2e782\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc741cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"fc741cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/ivyleagueearlylearningacademy.com\/staging\/2286\/wp-content\/uploads\/playful-icon-of-a-tiger-1.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-388\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ivyleagueearlylearningacademy.com\/staging\/2286\/wp-content\/uploads\/playful-icon-of-a-tiger-1.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/ivyleagueearlylearningacademy.com\/staging\/2286\/wp-content\/uploads\/playful-icon-of-a-tiger-1-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/ivyleagueearlylearningacademy.com\/staging\/2286\/wp-content\/uploads\/playful-icon-of-a-tiger-1-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/ivyleagueearlylearningacademy.com\/staging\/2286\/wp-content\/uploads\/playful-icon-of-a-tiger-1-768x768.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49f5439 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"49f5439\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34ae0d0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"34ae0d0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Tigers<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7236d21 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7236d21\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Pre Kindergarten older 4s and 5s: 55 months plus\/4-5 year olds<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80211f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"80211f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Our Pre-K class is named after the Ivy League school Princeton University. In our Preschool class, our little Lions are in their final year of preschool, as our program is designed to prepare children for kindergarten. There is a strong emphasis on literacy and language arts. The daily routine includes literacy routines, writing, math, science, foreign language instruction, movement, art, and music. Through character education teachers model respect, kindness, and children learn how to resolve conflicts while building friendships. In addition, children learn to express themselves through writing and telling complete stories.
