Early Childhood (PK3-K)
Children learn by doing, not by sitting on the sidelines. Our small student-to-teacher ratio allows many opportunities for children to try new things while receiving one-on-one attention from the teacher.
The Early Childhood Experience
Each child is unique, and here at Roycemore we believe that it is our responsibility to meet their individual physical, social, intellectual, and emotional needs. Students in our Early Childhood program (preschool ages 3-5) experience a tremendous period of intense growth.
Our youngest students learn to think critically, develop social-emotional awareness, and become part of their classroom community which builds character. Roycemore has carefully crafted classrooms that are diverse learning centers which represent the students and the outside community through the choice of materials and activities. Students work collaboratively to complete projects as part of a team, bringing the projects to life and allowing the children to make sense of all they are learning.
Academics and Curriculum
Our experienced, certified Early Childhood Education teachers present academic skills and concepts to the children in a fun, meaningful way, specifically for preschoolers. Pre-reading and early math skills are integrated throughout the day, during both structured and unstructured classroom activities.
Throughout the year students learn each of the essential components of our Early Childhood program:
- Social-Emotional Development
- Writing, Reading, and Mathematics
- Science and Social Studies
- Music, Movement, and Art
