Quiet, student initiated activities begin our day. You
might see friends sharing a book or working on a puzzle
together. Many students enjoy challenging the teachers
to a game during this time. One table is set aside for
eating (parents must provide the food, we provide milk
and bowls).
This is a time to “get the wiggles out!” CFK students
have a playground right outside their door.
Additionally we sometimes visit the gym, ride bikes
behind the church or play games in the field.
Prayer and Christian learning is integrated throughout
our day. Students also enjoy a dedicated time to learn
Biblical truths in developmentally appropriate ways
including selected Bible verses, songs, art, books and
illustrations.
Play is the work of children. The items in each center
are changed frequently to support our themes and
maintain student interest. Teachers encourage the
development of language skills during this time through
interactions with the students.
Students are divided by age groups for circle time so
that skills presented may reinforce lessons from the
preschool classrooms.
Parents may choose to pack a lunch for their child, or
purchase one through the school lunch program. CFK will
supply milk for all students.
All students are asked to do an independent
quiet/restful activity for at least 20 minutes.
Students who nap are provided with a mat, and may bring
a small pillow or blanket from home. Those who do not
nap are engaged in a variety of small group activities
during this time.
Students join back together for songs and finger-play
activities that encourage literacy development prior to
our afternoon snack. (All snacks are provided by CFK).
After snack, we usually have time for one or two
favorite songs while waiting for our friends to return
from school.
After school we go back outside to challenge our
physical skills with climbing, jumping, throwing,
catching and swinging.
In the late afternoon pre-school students gather
together for choice centers.
Finally it its time to clean up and say our goodbyes.
