3-3.8 year old Preschool
The Cuties (25/26)
In the Cuties classroom, there is an emphasis on socialization and communication—Three-year-olds need to learn these skills to get along in life scenarios. The teachers set up the classroom with different learning centers. In each learning center, the children can learn these new socialization skills and work on fine motor skills, following directions, how things work, walking in a line, waiting, and being patient. The three-year-old classroom is where many start their Young World journey. This classroom is where children discover their independence. The teachers encourage self-help skills: dressing for outside time, caring for their belongings, and toileting. They begin to learn songs sung during calendar and morning meetings; these songs are sung in every classroom throughout the center.
The Cutie’s Lead Teacher: Melody Martinez

“Every child is a different kind of flower and altogether make this world a beautiful garden.”
