Here's a sample of a day in one of our half day preschool programs:
Arrive and Gather: Children arrive, put away their belongings, apply extra layers if needed, and then are invited to engage in simple provocations like popsicle stick bridges, chalk drawing on leaves, or symmetrical pattern making with nature items.
Opening circle: We'll gather for our opening circle time to sing seasonal songs, learn new songs or phrases in Spanish, discuss the calendar and weather, and take turns telling stories from our storytelling basket.
Snack, tea ceremony and read aloud: We'll nourish our bodies with a healthy snack and herbal tea, and nourish our minds with nature-themed literature or poetry.
Nature study: Each week we'll explore a different nature theme, weaving in science, history, geography, literacy, math and art concepts into each lesson.
Exploration: This is our time to explore our outdoor classroom, work in our class garden, tend to the goats, chickens or pigs, climb, dig or meander. We might take a visit to the ponds, the orchard, or the evergreen forest. Lots of child-led play and exploration!
Closing circle: For the last part of our day, we'll prepare to go home and gather one last time. Students are invited to take off outdoor gear or rain suits, then gather belongings. We'll reflect on our day and sing our goodbye song. Then we'll walk together to our pickup location.
