Our Pre-Kindergarten Open Days are wonderful opportunities for you to spend time with your child in their preschool setting.  They offer you the opportunity to explore the center yourself, to see your child enjoying spending time in the center and for them to showcase some of their learning activities with you.  Open Days provide opportunities for families to gain a deeper, more interactive understanding of our approach in early childhood education.  Thank you to all the parents and caregivers who joined us for today’s Open Day activities.

Shapes play an important role in helping children categorize things around them. Understanding shapes is an important concept in learning Math, Science, and Reading. In discovering shapes, children  observe what is the same and different and this allows them to compare objects.

The children in PK3/4 C enjoyed identifying, comparing and choosing their preferred shapes during our different shape activities.  During our kite making activity, the children chose the shape they preferred to use to make a kite.  After decorating them, they took their kites out to fly on a windy day. The children also had fun in hunting for different shapes in the playground. They pointed to different shapes that they recognized and moved eagerly from one place to another in search of more shapes.
