Literacy

Our classrooms are print-rich environments to encourage letter recognition and reading skills at appropriate age levels.  We offer Handwriting Without Tears in the 3s, 4s, and T-K classes, which is a popular and well-recognized letter recognition and writing program.  We utilize the preschool version of Letterland, a literacy program used by the Wake County Public School System.  We begin the introduction of sight words in the 4's and T-K as well as simple sentence writing in T-K.  At each age level, stories – and discussions about those stories – are an important part of each day.  We introduce book terminology, and practice the art of retelling stories and imagining different endings.
