Byron Center Public School’s Early Childhood Programs are founded on the belief that school readiness is a continuum that begins at birth.
Our programs focus on the whole child and offer developmentally appropriate experiences. We team with our parents to:
- promote their child’s social and emotional development
- physical well-being and motor development
- speech and language development, cognitive
- general knowledge development
In partnership with parents and community, our goal is to prepare each child for success in a seamless continuum of lifelong learning.
Sample Typical Day Schedule:
- Large Group Time allows for whole group instruction to introduce and reinforce academic concepts. Children participate in stories, music, fingerplays, Zoo Phonics, open-ended questions, and more.
- Small Group Time allows for smaller group instruction to introduce and reinforce academic concepts. This time is used for students to work more one on one with the teachers to practice literacy, math, fine motor, and cognitive skills.
- Choice Time allows children to independently seek out areas of interest through play to develop social skills, language development, cooperative play, and problem solving.
- Large Motor Time allows children to develop their large motor skills--running, jumping, balancing, climbing, crawling, sliding, throwing, catching, etc. Children have the opportunity to use the motor room and playground.
