Preschool Home From the Director Purpose Method Policies & Procedures

ethod Mentally A well planned and coordinated curriculum, which includes learning experiences for the very youngest group to the oldest group of children, is the procedure used to carry out our purpose. The learning experiences include many units of study on subjects such as Animals, Space, Transportation, Community Helpers, Children in Lands Far and Near, Native Americans, and a unit of study designed to develop a positive self-image called "All About Me". Physically Outdoor play, weather permitting, is part of our daily routine. Simple exercises such as running, jumping, skipping, hopping, etc., in addition to group games and musical activities develop strong, healthy, physical bodies. Socially Social development is equally important. Good manners, respecting the rights of others, charing, speech development, and a positive attitude are emphasized as the children learn how to work and play together in group activities. Spiritually As an integral part of Mt. Sylvan United Methodist Church, the Mt. Sylvan Preschool offers a Christian alternative to child care. Children are not only offered the opportunity to grow physically, mentally, and socially, but also to grow spiritually in a Christian atmosphere. It is not the intent of Mt. Sylvan to indoctrinate children in the beliefs of one particular denomination, but rather to expose them to Bible stories and Christian songs, provide learning opportunities to appreciate the beauty of God's world and taking care of the bodies God has given them. One way these learning opportunities are provided is by attending Chapel each Friday morning.
