Our morning only Half Day Preschool Program (8:00–12:00, Monday–Friday) delivers a structured, play-based routine designed to build kindergarten readiness through targeted small-group activities, teacher-guided learning centers, and consistent daily rhythms that reinforce social, emotional, language, and pre-academic skills. Each morning includes intentional literacy and math explorations—such as song-based phonemic play, letter and number recognition games, and hands-on manipulatives—alongside fine motor practice, structured transitions, and cooperative play to promote self-regulation, following multi-step directions, and classroom behavior. Teachers use ongoing observations and simple assessments to individualize supports, introduce early writing and problem-solving tasks, and prepare children for the expectations of a full-day kindergarten environment, while daily routines like circle time, snack, outdoor play, and reflection help children develop independence, punctuality, and confidence.
