First Presbyterian Playschool in Jackson, TN

Preschool Description

The First Presbyterian Playschool provides the preschool child with the companionship of children his/her own age in an environment scaled to his/her needs under trained adult supervision. In addition to the child-directed play and activities such as the dress-up corner, blocks, and kitchen area, there is provision for activities requiring special adult direction such as story telling, PEP program, reading, use of rhythm instruments, and singing games. It is our desire that each preschooler becomes confident in his/her own abilities and has acquired the cognitive, social and emotional skills to be successful in Kindergarten. Some of the things that enrich a child's experience in preschool are:
Companionship with others his own age who have similar interests and abilities.
Learning to share and cooperate with one another.
Opportunities for creative expression in paints, blocks, clay, cutting, and pasting.
Quiet concentration with books, puzzles, pegboards, sensory boxes, etc.
Dramatic play- doll corner, kitchen, dress-up clothing, acting out simple stories, etc.
Language development (Peabody Language Development Kit), Spanish vocabulary, classification PEP boxes (Primary Educational Project)
Music in many forms: listening, singing, dancing, and rhythmic activities.
Stories, poems and finger plays with all their possibilities.
Outside play- use of large equipment and development of the "big muscles."
Number fun (pre-readiness activities with math) and math PEP boxes.
Appreciation for Gods beautiful world thru observing nature and participation in nature and science activities.
