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 learning to play well in groups, self help skills, and language development. The Roosters also learn colors, 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.
Our Rooster students will also work on developing their fine motor skills through art projects, and begin to learn how to recognize their own names. Many children will master potty training while in the Rooster Class.
