Little Journey Preschool

Little Journey Preschool at the Huntley Campus of Christ Community believes that each child is a special gift from God, each coming into this world with their own unique gifts and abilities. We believe that there is a critical link between a child’s early experiences and later success in their lives.

We provide a safe, supportive and nurturing environment where children can develop physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually. We support the relationship between children, their families, and preschool staff. All learning activities engage the children so they can explore, experiment, imitate, ask questions, and be questioned to further their thinking and problem-solving skills.

Little Journey Preschool is located at the Huntley Campus of Christ Community at 10547 Faiths Way.

CLASSES AND REGISTRATION

Two Year Old Program
This class is designed for children who seem ready and are interested in preschool, but are not quite old enough for the three year old class. The curriculum allows the children to experience peer and group relationships. Some of the daily activities include expressive art, dramatic play, language arts, story time, small and large motor skills.

Three Year Old Program
The three year old curriculum encourages hands-on approach to learning. The goals for this program are to increase their verbal self-expression and develop the ability to share and negotiate. Developmentally appropriate cognitive skills are woven through the curriculum on a daily basis through both structured times (circle and small group) and unstructured time (learning centers in the classroom.)

Four Year Old Program
Our four and five year old class still builds development with more emphasis placed on kindergarten readiness. The skills that your child will need to thrive in kindergarten are woven into your child’s day through hands-on activities in the areas of language arts, pre-writing, pre-math, pre-literacy, fine and large motor. This program uses the same curriculum as the 5-day program, but the children only attend three days a week.

5-Day Program
Our 5-day class is for children who are 4 and 5 years old. Most of these children will be going to kindergarten the following year. Daily attendance gives the children a gift of TIME. Time to expand growing powers, time to test and retest emerging concepts and time to reinforce growing skills. This class is designed to give the children a sampling of the many things that they will be exposed to when they reach kindergarten. By using literacy awareness, phonemic, and whole language techniques, we can present the materials in a way that is understood by the child. We want the children to be prepared to go to kindergarten, but at the same time we want them to have fun and enjoy themselves.
