Newtown High School Nurtury
Now accepting registrations for 2015 -2016
A preschool for 3 & 4 year olds
A look at a typical day
Table Toys
We start our day by using our hands & minds to play together and learn new skills. Each table has a different focus. The Construction table may have Lincoln Logs, while the Games table has a Bingo game and the Fine Motor table has lacing cards.
Circle Time
We come together as a whole class to sing songs, report on the weather, identify shapes, colors and rhymes and review our schedule for the day. A different high school buddy leads each session.
Centers
We independently choose the interest area we would like to play in each day within a small group. Our choices include: Cooking, Computers, Sand/Water Tables, Art Library, Dramatic Play, Discovery, Blocks & Active Play.
Snack
Snack is the perfect time to learn about nutrition, practice our manners and learn how to carry on conversations with our friends. We also practice good hygiene by washing our hands and using place mats.
Outdoors
We practice our gross motor skills on our fully enclosed outdoor play area. We even have a tricycle track.
Handwriting
We use the multi-sensory materials from the Handwriting Without Tears program to learn letter formation and phonemic awareness.
