Preschool I & II At this stage, the actual joy of learning begins. By developing the child's confidence and instilling a positive self-image, we lay the foundation for education. Our curriculum is based on hands-on experience and active participation. Throughout the program, we try to match learning materials to individual needs. Academic skills, such as letters, rhymes, and numbers are balanced with creative experience in art, language, and music. At this age, children are taught French by use of audio-visual tapes. They also begin basic key board familiarity and fun games on our computers. Science and social studies are introduced through the use of such activities as sand and water play and visiting community professionals . Most of all, Morning Star makes learning fun. As in all our classes, our staff is thoroughly trained in early childhood development as well as C.P.R. Parents are always encouraged to join in and participate in our daily activities.
