Welcome to Ms. Jenn's All Day Threes!
Threes
The preschool years are an exciting time as children's personalities begin to blossom, vocabularies and word comprehension expand and children become increasingly independent and confident in their abilities. Imaginative play becomes more important and the child begins taking initiative. Children are incredibly busy refining and building upon the skills they have already learned.
Day School classrooms are busy with investigation, discovery and experimentation. The teacher plays a role of facilitator in the classroom and creates an environment that is challenging (but not frustrating), allowing for individual activities as well as small and large group activities. The environment is child-initiated to create a sense of self-reliance, encourage problem solving and enhance cooperation among the children and adults. The teacher supports the curriculum by asking open-ended questions, adding materials when appropriate and expanding the thoughts and ideas of the children. The children interact with real, concrete objects to help make connections with their own life experiences while learning and exploring new ideas and encountering new discoveries.
Through intentional teaching practices and enriched classroom environments, children have meangingful learning experiences that lead to school readiness and success with future learning and life skills.

Ms. Jenn joined the Day School staff in 2023. She earned her Associate of Liberal Sciences from Eastfield College. Ms. Jenn has had the pleasure of to work with a lot of different ages - most recently with toddlers and twos, but also threes, fours and elementary ages. Her favorite thing about teaching is watching a child master new skills and receiving their smiles, hugs and love. Ms. Jenn is the mom of an 8 year old son and is expecting and starting all over in May! She is the oldest in her family and in her friend group, so she has "mom" mode on default. She loves to spend time and create memories with family and friends. In her spare time, she enjoys attending concerts, shopping, organizing/cleaning & trying new foods. Ms. Jenn's Favorites |
