At this age, children are able to expand learning and take on more challenges while still engaging in building friendships and developing a stong sense of self. Teachers plan and facilitate opportunities to advance skills in academic areas such as literacy, math, technology, engineering and science; as well as creative art, social and emotional well-being and health and safety.
As children grow and develop, their ability to engage in complex projects increases. Pre-kindergarten is an ideal time to introduce children to reading readiness, mathematical thinking, scientific reasoning, intricate artistic experiences and enriched learning opportunities. These activities build upon what children have already learned.
