Chicky Class (2 years)

This first class at Nomura Preschool lays the foundations for learning readiness and social interaction. Here we focus on sharing, role-playing, listening and communication. Colors, number concepts, animals, holidays, and feelings all enter into the Chicky curriculum. We make music a big part of the day, and we also work on potty-training.

Rooster Class (2-3 years)

Roosters are our older twos, and continue to build on the skills they learn in the Chicky class. Children focus on playing well in groups, self help skills, and language development. The Roosters also learn colors, shapes, number concepts, and new vocabulary through fun and engaging play. Children and teachers in the Rooster and Chicky classes often co-mingle to increase opportunities for social learning.
