The goals of Chapin’s Pre-Kindergarten year
center on fostering a love of learning as well as on the
development of positive school experiences. By forming
friendships with new classmates and with teachers, children
make great strides in their social-emotional development,
all the while being exposed to Chapin’s Character
Development Program and its emphasis on Respect,
Responsibility, Honesty, Kindness and Perseverance. Through
age appropriate learning experiences, children’s cognitive
growth is also encouraged and supported. In a print-rich
environment, children can explore the pleasure of books and
their own emerging literacy skills. Math is introduced in
hands-on and real world applications. The Pre-Kindergarten
year is one that allows for a great deal of parent
involvement through classroom visits and sharing with the
children. It forms a perfect bridge between home and
school. |
