| Preschool Program I provide a preschool program for 3-5 year olds that I developed with inspiration from the Early Start Program. The following is the routine: Line up in alphabetical order Recite Pledge of Allegiance Show and Tell (great for the child to experience being in the spot light and building confidence) Sing the ABC's as we march to sit and listen to a story (could be a recording, puppet show, story teller, book, play acting) Science (could be as simple as exploring the inside of a flower to science experiments about sound, color, etc.) Art-they expand their abilities with the use of scissors, glue, paint, colors, etc. (sometimes the art project coordinates with our story) Music (recordings, singing, band instruments, marching, etc.) Fine M otor Activity (stringing beads, tearing newspaper and gluing the shapes on a larger piece of paper, etc.) Gross Motor Activity (somersaults, pumping on swing, walking on a beam, skipping, etc.) Potty Break (learn proper techniques, wash hands, etc.) Snack Time (great time for learning colors, counting, shapes, and manners) we pray before each snack and meal Free Play (the most important time of the day for them to learn social skills!
