What to Expect

ILP Developmental Goals

Every child is an individual and will be allowed to progress from one developmental stage to another at his/her own pace. It is very important that a variety of learning tools be available in order to meet the child’s developmental needs at every given stage.

Through dramatic play, sharing, finger plays, and story time, children will improve their language and listening skills. Drawing and even scribbling will develop pre-writing skills. Tearing paper (and later cutting with scissors) will develop fine motor skills. Along with enjoyable class activities will increase recognition of shapes, colors, letters, and numbers.




Class schedules

Schedules vary for our three and four year olds.  Each class is developmentally appropriate with time built into the day for exploration, play and socialization.  Here is a sample schedule of a typical 4-year-old class day.
