The Pre-Kindergarten curriculum is planned around weekly themes and geared towards preparing children for entrance into Kindergarten. Children are encouraged to do group projects, enjoy hands-on computer activities, music, reading, arts and crafts, vocabulary, math concepts and daily outdoor play. Children are encouraged to read and write at their own pace. The daily schedule provides for alternating periods of quiet and active play. The classroom is equipped with four computers so that children can engage with age-appropriate educational technology applications, through supervised and limited screen time. Monthly lesson plans are distributed so that families can engage with their child on what they are learning at Westgate.
