The Genius of Making Pre-K Learning and Teaching Simple

Learning Domains

Language and Literacy

We use play, singing, manipulatives, and movement to teach children to rhyme, clap syllables, make and break compound words, and identify sounds. The hands-on materials foster the use of new words and develop oral language skills through listening, retelling, answering questions, and narrating stories.

Readiness and Writing

Within this learning area, you will discover music, movement, and multisensory manipulatives to teach all the core readiness skills including crayon grip, letter and number recognition, and number, capital, and lowercase letter formation.

Numbers and Math

Music and rhymes are used to teach counting, comparisons, spatial awareness, patterning, sequencing, matching, sorting, problem-solving, and even Pre-K geometry skills. Lessons give children time to play with real objects and test their ideas so that math becomes real and meaningful.

Physical Development

By using finger plays, singing, dancing, coloring and tracing letters and numbers, children develop handedness, fine and gross motor movements, and body awareness. Through visual perception, they learn to perceive the size, shape, or identity of an object by the sense of touch and attach meaning to visual information.

Social Emotional Learning

Children need to feel safe and accepted and have reassurance in the classroom environment. With activities designed to develop self-concept, self-regulation, personal initiative, empathy, and relationships with adults and peers, they will develop strong social and emotional skills.

Science and Social Studies

Spark the imagination of your young explorers as they learn about the world around them. Science and Social Studies lessons cover community, basic geography, self-care, plants, animals, and caring for the environment.
