Preschool
The goal of HUG Preschool is
to provide a safe, loving, and stimulating environment.
We focus on preparing the students for the next stage of
learning emphasizing on developing them physically,
cognitively, emotionally, socially, and spirtually.
Our Program
Creative, Stimulating, & Meaningful
Curriculum
Our focus is to create a holistic learning environment where students will be confident and curious in their learning. We believe that each child has their own way of learning and co-construct opportunities that are intentional and meaningful. We focus on creating developmentally appropriate experiences in these developmental domains:
-
Physical - Develops gross and fine motor skills
-
Social-Emotional - Fosters interpersonal skills and problem solving with other people
-
Cognitive - Art, Engineering, Math, Reading, and Science
-
Spiritual - Teaches lessons of faith, hope, and love through stories, play, music and prayer.
Art
We invite children to express themselves through different mediums of art. Here, children utilize and build their fine motor skills to create something they find to be meaningful.
Engineering
Children are challenged to look at every day problems and come up with their own solutions. Whether it is through constructing something to get a ball that went over the fence or collaborating together to build a house for a lovey. We're all for it!
Math
Math concepts are found everywhere! Whether counting how many friends are at school today, noticing there are fewer cars in the street, or creating a mosaic with some shapes, we believe in providing stimulating opportunities for children to see math in their day to day experience.
Language and Literacy
Throughout the year, we get to know each letter weekly. We engage in opportunities for conversations that help children learn sentence structure and grow their vocabulary naturally.
Science
Observe, investigate, and question! We want children to develop their own hypothesis around what is happening around them. By researching together, children engage their curiosities to learn.
