Youth Early Learning
Amazon Preschool Ages 3-5
Amazon Preschool aims to spark a lifelong love of learning through nature and art while providing developmentally appropriate practices that support the whole child. The goal is to create an engaging and fun educational environment through child-led play and teacher-led group projects that promote independence while also nurturing the social and emotional intelligence and creativity in preschool children.
The focus is on individual early academic development through experiential learning with an emphasis on building social skills. Children engage in arts and science activities that build upon skills to increase dexterity and coordination while having fun. Through self-directed learning children explore, play and become independent learners.

Mask Making
Masks have been used throughout time and across cultures in a myriad of ways: to express, to conceal, to fantasize, to entertain, to protect and to empower. Mask making is an excellent way to explore different aspects of our identity and expand upon our sense of self. Using plaster and gauze, we will cast impressions of our faces that can then be decorated and embellished to create unique representations of who we are or who we want to be.

Dancing Through the Decades
Let’s dance our way through the decades of the past and into the present with popular melodies and dance crazes that have de�ined each era, spanning an array of styles. Woven into our routines are low-impact cardio, healthy stretching and rhythmic coordination that will exercise our brains and bodies, increasing physical stamina and cognitive function.
Dance is the body’s poetry set to music, and we’ll have so much fun moving and grooving that we may even forget we’re exercising.

Preescolar de Amazon 3-5 años
El Preescolar de Amazon tiene como objetivo despertar un amor por el aprendizaje a través de la naturaleza y el arte mientras proporciona prácticas apropiadas que apoyan el desarrollo en su totalidad. La meta es crear un entorno educativo atractivo y divertido a través de juegos dirigidos por niños y proyectos grupales dirigidos por maestros para promover la independencia y al mismo tiempo fomentar el desarrollo social, la inteligencia emocional y la creatividad. El enfoque está en el desarrollo académico temprano individual a través de la experiencia haciendo énfasis en la construcción de habilidades sociales. Los niños participan en actividades artísticas y cientí�icas que ayudarán a aumentar la destreza y la coordinación por medio de la diversión. A través del juego y la exploración por medio del aprendizaje autodirigido se convertirán en aprendices independientes.
