Welcome to Ms. Natalie'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.
