Incoming Pre-K Children for 2021/2022 School Year
Welcome to our Pre-K Family at PS 212!
This is the year for our youngest learners to shine brightly in our classrooms. It will be a year of magical wonder and amazing growth for your little star. We are looking forward to working with you and your child as we teach them to reach for the stars. So many great things will happen in our classrooms. This year we hope to prepare your child emotionally, socially, and academically in a positive and nurturing environment.
In Pre-K we learn through play and we will have so much fun! Every month of Pre-K we will be focusing on a different theme. We are starting off with Welcome to Pre-K and as the year goes on we will explore many different topics. We do most of our learning through centers so your child will get to experience such things as dramatic play, blocks, library, art, fine motor, science, and more!
In Pre-K we will be using a math program called Building Blocks. We will be focusing on basic concepts such as: numbers, patterns, shapes, sorting, and measurement. We will be using Fundations to help build the foundational literacy skills your child will need for the rest of their schooling. Fundations is a very small, but important part of our day as it introduces the letters and the sounds to our students in a hands-on way. The Fundations activities are not meant to be mastered but are merely an introduction to skills they will need in Kindergarten.
In Pre-K we focus on emotions and how to understand them through different Social-emotional programs. We will be using Sandford Harmony, Brain Power Wellness, and Mindfulness as a school. We are looking forward to our Pre-K adventure with your child and family. Pre-K will be the beginning of a wonderful school experience.
Looking forward to meeting you,
Your Pre-K Teachers
