Preschool 2 (P2) Classroom

“Let’s Play and Discover!”

Preschool 2 is a time of wonderful transitions. Increased language and physical skills, along with developing friendships and curiosity, provide the basis for a rich and inviting curriculum. Children continue to explore centers (drama, block, art, etc.) through choice time, and work on small and whole group activities. Circle time provides expanded opportunities for both listening and presenting, along with building math and reading skills. Through play in hands-on activities rich in science, math, literature and art, children build skills to prepare them for our Pre-Kindergarten and PreK/Kindergarten programs and/or public and private kindergarten. We are preparing our CHDS Preschool 2 students for Pre-Kindergarten and Pre-K/Kindergarten.

Emergent curriculum drawing from the interests of students and teachers provide the framework for our thematic units. In this month long unit, P2 explores topics related to Healthy Eating:

  • Literacy: Reading “Eating the Alphabet” and sorting foods into fruits or vegtables.
  • Math: Graphing the Red Light, Green Light and Yellow light foods in our lunch box.
  • Science: Using our five senses to identify different types of foods.
  • Art: Painting still life of fruits and vegtables.
  • Drama: Shopping in our Preschool 2 supermarket, making grocery lists and working the cash register.

Children's Happy Day School
This week in Pre-K/K we learned about how a cloud collects water droplets until it is too heavy, and then it begins to rain. To demonstrate this principle we created a cloud experiment in our room. First we filled a large jar with cold water, then we added a shaving cream cloud on top, and took turns adding blue water droplets a few at a time. We watched in amazement as the cloud began to rain into the jar below. ... See MoreSee Less

Pre-K/K friends are learning about fairytales! This week they pretended to be the three little pigs by engineering houses out of straws, popsicle sticks and blocks. When they were done the big bad wolf, Ms. Leana, came to see if they could blow their houses down! It was lots of fun and a wonderful lesson in teamwork. ... See MoreSee Less
