4/5-Year Old Class
While some children are experiencing preschool for the first time, others in this class have
previously attended GPCP or another preschool. An emphasis on reading and math readiness is
an ongoing component of the 4/5-year old class day. This is facilitated through literature,
seasonal themes, scientific exploration, art, cooperative play, and oral communication
development.
“The 4's program was a great developmental year
for my son. [He] learned how to take
responsibility for his work, and the projects were
presented in a fun, social & interactive fashion, so
that he didn't even realize he was learning pre-
kindergarden material! He has been doing great
this year in Kindergarten - both academically and
socially -thanks to the solid foundation he gained
at the Co-op.” – Sarah, parent
Each year Mrs. Gregory meets with area Kindergarten teachers to insure that our program is preparing
children for the transition to elementary school.
Following state guidelines, this class has a maximum of 14 students. With a teacher and two parent
helpers in the class each day we provide an excellent level of supervision. Children who are at least
4-years old by September 30th are eligible for this class that meets for two and a half hours three
days a week.
