DISTINCTIVE
FEATURES
THE PROGRAM
is rich in reading-readiness activities which help build an excellent
foundation for kindergarten and elementary school. It is designed exclusively
for children who are four and five years old.
THE CLASS SIZE
(6 children per class) is small enough to allow a tremendous amount of
individual attention yet large enough to help the children learn and practice
good social skills.
THE LOCATION
is in my home, located on ten acres of land in the rural northeast corner
of Oakland County. Opportunities for outdoor play, nature walks and other
outdoor learning activities abound.
THE CLASSROOM
is the entire lower level of the home where children enjoy a very colorful,
stimulating, and fun-filled learning environment. There are numerous shelves
at the children’s level which hold a wide variety of manipulatives.
In addition to many art supplies and bulletin boards, there is an easel,
blackboard, and sensory table. There are also areas for science and nature
study, math activities, playing house, snack time and a library. Children
enjoy making puzzles, playing games, building with blocks, playing musical
instruments, cooking, baking, and building with wood.
THE TUITION
is all-inclusive. At the time of enrollment, parents pay a registration
fee and deposit. Beginning in September, a monthly tuition fee will be
paid for nine months. No additional fees will be charged, with the exception
of the cost of admission for field trips. Parents will NOT be asked to
purchase supplies or provide snacks, (unless you choose to send a special
treat for a birthday or holiday celebration). There will be NO candy sales
or other fundraisers for you to support.
THE TEACHER
brings to this learning center a wide range of teaching experiences. These
include teaching positions in public and private schools, enrichment programs
for the gifted and talented, Sunday School, and providing instruction
for homebound children. Classroom teaching experiences include elementary,
primary, kindergarten, and preschool children. The teacher holds a Michigan
K-8 Teaching Certificate.
