She has a very strong grasp of the letters and their sounds and is able to work her way through sounding out some words. She is very excited to be able to look at a book and see more than just letters jumbled on the page.
Evaluation comment from a mom
Did you know?
The cost of a high quality pre-kindergarten program is $12,000 per year…putting quality pre-kindergarten out of reach for most middle class families with young children
Pre K Scholars to Launch Phonics-Based Letter-Sound Recognition App
September 30th, 2011Yaaaayyy! We have Pre Skay Skaw-Luhs today!
January 13th, 2010In addition to being a teacher, this past week I experienced the Pre K Scholars program as a mother, and saw it through the eyes of my own child (or children in my case). Wow! What an awe-inspiring experience it was from the start. My twins turn five on Monday and are enrolled in one [...]
Recap of the NAEYC conference in Washington, DC
November 30th, 2009After a cross-country flight home from DC, and a 1,250 mile roadtrip with the family for the holidays, I still find myself at a loss for words from the NAEYC Conference. Just to be in the nation’s capital, where great policies are made and such history is represented, is awe-inspiring. But add to that a [...]
A celebration of diversity, part 2: Scholarville
October 13th, 2009The Pre K Scholars curriculum centers on alphabet characters in a clever town called Scholarville—the concept for this town built on my interest in differences and diversity. I wanted to replicate communities of today that are filled with rich cultural diversity, and I wanted to express a feeling of the beauty in this. I also [...]
A celebration of diversity!
October 5th, 2009Very early on, children learn to express and display their own personal style. I love to watch them come into their own individuality. Trust me—there are days when I have to bite my lip. I have been known to explain to a few pre-school teachers, “I promise my children are well-nutured, I just choose to [...]
Vowels to Pre K students
May 4th, 2009The Pre K Scholars curriculum is based around two guiding education principles: All students are capable of learning any concept or skill if it is appropriately presented. Children learn by doing; so learning should be interactive, inventive and experiential. This holds true with the introduction of vowels within our program. What do Addy the Acrobat, [...]
Bridge the Gap Between Preschool and Kindergarten
April 6th, 2009This past weekend the Pre K Scholars team headed up to Northern California for an early educational conference; we were amazed by the sparseness in product and representation. Still, being amidst a room of everything pertaining to early education—children’s literature, manipulatives, educational toys, curriculums, furniture—it’s hard not to feel both excited and inspired. For us, [...]
Connections
March 25th, 2009I am a firm believer in “everything happens for a reason” and putting your trust in letting things work themselves out. With this belief, I am always amazed at the connections that are made and the outcomes that are created. This happened to be the guiding principle on how Scholarville came to life. I have [...]
