Jump Start
Our school philosophy is to provide a loving and nurturing environment for our youngest preschool students to explore and experience the world around them. Our Jump Start program is designed to provide experiences for developing skills in:
- transitioning into school and developing independence
- exploring the classroom environment
- beginning social skills with their classmates
- participating in group activities.
Some learning activities that will be offered to your child during our mornings at TBA are:
- making choices during free play
- learning how to play with a classmate
- circle/story time
- social skills at snack time
- songs and large motor movement
- “messy” projects (paint, play dough, and shaving cream)
- the most important lesson of all, as quoted by our graduates… “Mommies and daddies always come back”!
