Blessed Sacrament School Photo #3 - Why is Pre-kinder important for your child? PreK builds a solid foundation for the rest of your child`s school years. A focus on the academic, emotional, social, and spiritual growth of each child, using a wide variety of activities builds a lifelong love of learning. Students are exposed to many basic concepts to prepare for Kindergarten and beyond, such as pre-math, math, science, and literacy concepts, various forms of literature, colors, shapes, with themes based on animals, transportation, and many more. They will also participate in art, music, and dramatic play. Developing listening and language skills, large and small muscle coordination (pre-writing skills), and social skills such as learning to get along with others are also important. Spirituality is emphasized throughout the curriculum through prayer, songs, and our religion pages; bringing it all together in our Faith.
