Children in pre-k are learning to independently navigate the classroom and make choices with and without peers and teachers. They show interest in all curriculum domains (math, science, literacy, cultural studies, arts), and have a strong social and emotional foundation. Pre-k children actively participate in group experiences—attending to the content, responding to open-ended questions and making predictions. They are able to consistently follow an activity through to completion; capable of caring for their own personal needs (toileting, dressing, safety); and are competent at navigating the classroom environment. Upon completing the prekindergarten program, children are well prepared for kindergarten.
