Young 4’s Class

The Young 4’s class will prepare those students who are Kindergarten bound or will be going on to the oldest Pre-K class.

Teacher: Tiffany Gill

About the Teacher:

Tiffany has had a long beautiful teaching career at Claire’s having started back in 2004. EC-4 Certified. Would like to add in more information

What to expect:

The young 4’s focuses on increased time in centers and in teacher-directed learning, these students will use their longer attention spans and innate curiosity to experience a broad range of subjects. Focusing on pre-reading, pre-math, fine motor skills, listening skills and independent working skills.  This class is for students who are eligible to enter kindergarten the following year, but also allows for the option to enter a primer preschool class should the parents and teacher agree another year of pre-k would be beneficial.
