Afternoon Supplemental  Programs
for the Preprimary Class

Preschool and Kindergarten 

2007-2008 

Children must be fully toilet trained before participating in our afternoon sessions.

 

Lunch in the Garden

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday

      

     This is a very special time when the Preprimary Class children set up their own lunch tables, and then enjoy lunch together within the sights and sounds of nature.  Children are asked to bring a nutritious, ecologically packed lunch from home. Guidelines are provided. This is an educational part of our day involving learning about nutrition and ecology, setting up a table with napkins, placemats, etc. and practicing good table manners.

   Class Size:  12 -18  children  

   Ages in Sept:  3 – 6 years  

   Schedule: Tues., Wed., and Thurs.  11:45 A.M.  – 12:30 P.M.

Small Group Fanciful Learning and Rest  

                         On Wednesdays, after our Lunch in the Garden Session, we offer a peaceful “rest and read” period of about half an hour, followed by educational play activities. (A child may nap if she/he wishes.) This session is also led by a Montessori certified directress. Fun and fanciful learning activities are set up and learning is guided in the well-thought-out Montessori style, but the materials include the more playful offerings not typically found in Montessori morning programs.  Open ended materials which lend themselves to development of the child’s imagination, social development, and coordination include, water play, dolls, building blocks, clay,  cooperative games, construction toys, pattern blocks, etc.

       Class Size:  6 - 8  children  

       Ages in Sept:   3.5 – 6 years

   Note:  Single Day reservations, must be reserved at the school and arranged with your child by the start of the   morning session.  Due to our concern for the child’s sense of security and trust, no last minute drop-in arrangements are allowed.
