Preschool
The
Christ Child Academy Preschool offers two separate preschool programs;
Stepping Stones and Junior
Kindergarten.
The Stepping Stones class, for children who are at least 3 years
old by September 1st, meets Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30 to
11:00 AM. The Junior Kindergarten class, for children who are
at least 4 years old, meets Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from
8:30 to 11:30 AM. Each class is lead by a trained Wisconsin Certified
Lead Teacher and Teachers Aide.
Christ Child Academy's program strives to help
each child with the following goals:
- make a transition from home to school
- learn to follow directions
- work and play with others
- respond to discipline outside the home and
develop self-discipline
- develop abilities of self-expression through
creative acts, music, stories, and physical activities
- explore new ideas and expand knowledge and
ability
- develop a life-long love of learning
- learn about Jesus and be a part of God's
family.
Stepping Stones
By the end of the school year,
the children will:
- separate easily from parents/caregivers
who bring them to school
- engage in social play with their classmates
- understand and anticipate routines within
the school day
- follow directions for projects as well
as routine activities
- recognize own name in print
Junior Kindergarten
By the end of the school year, the child will
be able to:
- separate easily from parents/caregivers who
bring them to school
- engage in social play with their classmates
- understand and anticipate routines within
the school day
- follow directions for projects as well as
routine activities
- legibly print their own name
- recognize classmates’ names and other
simple words in print
Additionally, there will be specific
activities throughout the year involving math skills, language development,
pre-reading skills, science concepts, creative expression, social
development, and motor skills. It is
our expectation that the children will participate to their level
of comfort and competence and will continue to progress in these
areas.
