Preschool (for preschoolers 2-4 years old)
The first step is to become familiar with the English environment.
The youngest age, between 2 and 3 years old, begins with getting used to being away from mom and spending time in an environment with a foreign teacher.
The annual curriculum and daily programs are set, but the time allotted is fun and reasonable.
If children are showered with English at this time and receive a lot of input, they are expected to produce an amazing amount of output in later childhood.
Theme study
We have adopted a unique curriculum that incorporates the four seasons and events of Japan into the curriculum used in preschools in the United States.
Art
Art time for free expression is essential for young children, who are not bound by fixed concepts.
Using a variety of tools, including paint, glue, and scissors, students will create fun and spontaneous works of art.
Worksheet/Math
We will assess each child's age and progress, and proceed with worksheets according to each child's needs.
Even though it is called a worksheet, we start by holding the pencil correctly and drawing lines, then trace letters and numbers, and so on, building up little by little each day.
Science
Science is not a desk-based class, but rather a hands-on lesson where students will go outside to spread fallen leaves and look for insects.
Music
Through fun songs and dances, students will acquire a sense of rhythm and expression.
We sometimes create opportunities to listen to live performances of musical instruments to foster a child who can feel the wonder of music and develop an interest in it.
Phonics
Students will learn one letter of the alphabet (upper and lower case) each week.
In addition, by introducing phonics reading using phonics songs, etc. from this period, students will be able to read English naturally and effortlessly.
Kids Yoga Activity
An outside yoga instructor will be invited to teach yoga. Of course, lessons will be given in English.
The time of stillness, movement, and crisp yoga improves concentration and teaches students to control the balance between mind and body.
