Children
Age 3-5
RSS Playschool focuses on creating a positive and fun learning environment where play and learning are combined.
Our program provides opportunities and experiences which foster all areas of your child’s development including: Social, Emotional, Physical, Intellectual, and Language.
Our curriculum planning is based on a combination of Kindergarten readiness and learning themes. Academics, such as counting, color recognition, letters and concepts are explored through games, activities, stories and crafts. Children also enjoy regular field trips and holiday events!
During this course, students will become aware of the tasks involved in planning and operating a playschool.
They will learn and understand the physical, emotional, social and intellectual development of the preschool aged child.
Students are paired with a preschool aged child to work with on a one on one basis.
Students will be placed in groups who then will be responsible for planning activities and lessons for the children according to a theme or concept they want to teach. They will also help their designated child with the activities, and with the daily care and routines involving the child's needs.
