Our 2 1/2 year program is designed to introduce our youngest students to a fun learning environment out of the home. This is most likely the first time children will have been apart from their mom, dad or primary caregiver of a length of time. The primary goal in our 2 1/2 year old program is to help children learn how to interact with their classmates in a cooperative manner. Children learn to follow the directions of their teachers and how to participate in group learning experiences. 2 1/2 year olds learn best throught play, so much time is allowed for wiggles, giggles, free play exploration and fun!
We offer our children a secure, loving environment, with an established routine and schedule. Weekly themes are introduced which incorporate the developmental goals of the program. This begins the process of a structured day where planned educational activities and creative play time offer a balance in your two year-old's development. At two, our toddlers have left behind forever the total dependency of babyhood and have developed growing independence. Play includes exploring the world with all senses, practicing physical manipulating objects and mastering the challenges they present, experimenting with new materials, listening to stories, making music, dancing, roughhousing, and helping with daily chores. In short, playing is learning and a whole lot more.
Aldersgate KinderPrep bases it's curriculum on the Comprehensive Standards for Development as set forth by the State of Virginia. Click on the link below to review Virginia's Foundation Blocks for Early Learning.
