Welcome to the Blue Room!

Teachers: Miss Maura & Miss Diane

Our Blue Room Program enrolls 10 children each day with two teachers. This classroom provides a slower paced, protective and relaxed atmosphere for younger 3-year-old children beginning what may be their first group experience away from home. Our focus is to promote the development of social-emotional skills allowing children to learn self-confidence through eventually learned self-help skills; manage in a group setting; and follow the rules and routines of the classroom. Our teachers create a literacy-rich environment through intentionally planned learning opportunities to promote language development as well as physical, cognitive and creative growth.

Our schedule allows large blocks of time for free choice play in the classroom along with outdoor play each day. Weekly theme-based curriculum is developed around the interests of the children. Teachers observe and assess each child then use this information to adjust curriculum and play choices offered in the classroom to meet the individual needs of each child.

Our full day preschool program includes a rest time followed by a planned afternoon curriculum which offers calm, relaxing play activities. These activities are an extension of the morning curriculum allowing children additional time for exploration and practice of the concepts previously introduced.

We do accept children into our program who are not toilet trained in September. The family is responsible for initiating the toilet training of their child during the fall months. Children will be encouraged and supported in their efforts at school and must be well on their way to underwear by January. Teachers will work in partnership with parents to maintain consistency in supporting their child’s efforts and progress.
