Curriculum and Activities for 2K, 3K, and Pre-K (4-6 year olds) Classes
~ VBMS fosters learning in many areas of intellectual development including social behavior, emotional balance, physical skills, and Christian values. Children experience teaching through thematic, age-appropriate, teacher-directed activities and free play. Concepts related to the alphabet, letter sounds, writing, numbers, colors, shapes, beginner math, sight words, etc. are presented through fun games, activities, stories, music, art, and dramatic play.
~ Beyond the basics our students also have some super fun opportunities to learn about:
Art: Trying new techniques, mediums, and styles
Literacy: Weekly trips to the church library to hear a story and learn how to independently select and check out a book.
Music: We will all be making a lot of joyful noise!
Physical Exercise: Children will learn relaxation techniques, increase their balance, flexibility, and strength through exercise, yoga, stretching, and more.
Science: Children will step into our Innovation Lab for hands on Science experiments and other activities designed to focus on technology, engineering, science, and math.
Chapel: Learn more about God and Jesus through Bible stories, music, and by praying together.
