Preschool

 

At Genius Kids Academy, we provide a comprehensive curriculum and develop a lifelong love of learning through independent exploration and structured activities.

Every month, we offer a new theme to learn from. Students get to "discover” in our Discovery Areas which consist of language area, math area, science, art, music and more! In addition, we will target one letter per week in alphabetical order and introduce these concepts during our circle time activities which are implemented 3 times per day. In this time, we learn letters, numbers, calendar time, color of the week, as well as song and story time. This enables our preschoolers to engage with their peers and take direction from their teachers in a warm and inviting setting.






Our progress for our preschoolers is aimed at the following structure:·
⁃ Creative Expression·
⁃ Language and Literacy Development·
⁃ Social and Emotional Development·
⁃ Gross Motor Development·
⁃ Fine Motor Development·
⁃ Physical Development and Wellness

Each day, you will receive a "My Day Sheet” which will elaborate on what your child learned that day and how his or her behavioral performance was perceived. This allows the teachers to let the parents know the daily progress of their child. You will also receive a weekly academic portfolio that has all your child’s work in it. This way, you will know exactly what we taught and what he or she learned, as well as the level of proficiency gained in a certain area of development. Finally, at the end of each week your child’s teacher will send out a newsletter detailing everything that was learned during the completed week and what is to come. Also, any important dates or events will be in the weekly newsletter.

Your child’s teacher will provide you with their e-mail address through which they can be reached with any questions or concerns. Likewise, we encourage all our parents to phone our office for any reason throughout the day.

In addition to academics, we strive to encourage our students to excel in performing arts classes which will commence at the start of the academic year in Preschool and above.
