In our 4/5’s class the focus is on child initiated themes and activities while ensuring that standards are met in accordance with NYS Early Learning Guidelines. The 4/5’s continue their work with gross motor skills, and fine motor skills, with a focus on preparing for writing. The 4/5’s class works on letter recognition and phonemic awareness, numbers 1 -20, calendar, and weather. They also review colors, days of the week, and do more in depth crafts, activities, and lessons. Since this class meets more frequently, the teacher is able to dedicate more time on topics that the children are interested in and provides more learning time in the classroom for families who are looking for that option.
There are no required Parent Helper Days in the classroom for this program, only our basic Cooperative commitment of Classroom jobs or Board commitment.
Child must be 4 years old by December 1st, 2026.
