Little Wildcats Preschool is a preschool program designed to prepare children and families for the transition to kindergarten. We focus on pre-reading, writing, communication skills, number awareness, and social skills. Licensed teachers and classroom assistants provide daily large group activities, focused small group activities, snack time, and individual choice time at learning centers in the classroom.
We use the state approved assessment tool called “Teaching Strategies GOLD” (TS GOLD). It is an ongoing, authentic, observation-based, whole-child assessment system. This means we do not test children. Instead, we engage in an ongoing process of assessment so we learn about what every child knows and can do
