What to expect

The Perfect Balance of Learning and Play

Weekly lessons weave several subjects together and are tailored to each child's interests and stage. A child who likes blocks may build a tower while naming colors and counting. The program has six stages of learning and growth.

The seven components of Links to Learning:

Children hear stories, letters, and language every day as they connect spoken words to written ones. They explore addition, subtraction, geometry, patterns, and comparison through hands-on work. Puppets, books, and role play help them name feelings, practice kindness, and work with others. Music, art, dramatic play, science experiments, and Spanish run through the day.

Intermediates

Intermediates spend their day in hands-on activities that feed curiosity and imagination. They practice taking turns, sharing, and understanding their own emotions and their peers'. Three-year-olds begin building appreciation for people who are similar to and different from themselves, laying a foundation for an inclusive outlook.

Pre-K

Pre-K builds the social skills and etiquette children need for kindergarten. Children learn to follow classroom rules, listen to their teacher and peers, show respect, and follow directions. Academically, they work on letter-sound relationships and sight words, practice addition and subtraction, explore maps and globes, and run science experiments.

Family Communication

We know that aside from extraordinary curriculum and caring teachers, communication is one of the most important factors when choosing a preschool. Not only is communication with your child’s school important, but in today’s busy world, it can feel overwhelming to stay on top of what your child is learning.

What this looks like in practice

A preschool day usually balances active and quiet times. Children might paint, build, hear a story, move to music, and eat together. Teachers introduce a concept, then revisit it later so it sticks. Look for rooms set up in zones, a steady schedule, and adults who kneel down to talk with children.

Preschool builds habits children carry home. They learn to take turns, wait, and put on their own coat. They start naming feelings instead of only showing them. Print and stories will begin showing up in their play. Those small gains are the groundwork for reading, math, and getting along with others.
