The morning class offers a routine that includes circle times, snack time, and lots of unstructured time to explore activities including crafts, sand play, sensory play, science experiments, dramatic play, cooking, gardening, circle time, and group story time.

On Tuesday & Thursday afternoons, children are dropped off at school to participate in more teacher-led math and literacy activities in preparation for elementary school.

We organize a few field trips each year depending on interest and availability. For more about our play-based curriculum, click here.

Parents work in the classroom on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday mornings once a week to supervise play activities, socialization, and problem-solving. Parents attend a parent-ed meeting twice a month from 12:00 to 1:00 pm while their children attend a supervised lunch bunch. 

Two teachers, twenty-four children, and 5-6 classroom adults make up the class. (adult:child ratio 1:4)
