Our Kindergarten Prep
Program
The last big step before Elementary School! Our Kindergarten Prep program is everything your child will need to be successful once they hit the Kindergarten classroom. Our goal is to foster a love of learning that your child will take with them when they leave Expeditions.
What you can expect from our Kindergarten Prep Program:
Opportunities for independence, and ownership of their classroom
Foster creativity through open-ended projects with their interests in mind
Activities that support academic skills such as writing opportunities, early math skills, and scientific thinking
Outdoor activities that encourage team work, and imaginative play
Journaling
A Day in K-Prep

Morning Meeting
Small-group activities, and center play

What do we bring for our K-Prep Child?
Our Kindergarten Prep students are encouraged to come to school each day with their backpack of items. This helps them prepare for Kindergarten, where they will be expected to carry a large backpack every day! Some of these items will be left at school, but items such as their lunch box, outfits & comfort item can be transported each day by your learner!
Minimum of 3 full, weather appropriate outfits
1 morning snack, full lunch, and 1 afternoon snack
Nap mat
Comfort item used only for nap time
Appropriate gear to go outside (ex. sweater/snow suit/hat/gloves)
All items must be labeled with your child's full name.
