Carden Academy's Pre-School Math Program
Carden Academy believes that young children must be introduced to the most basic of mathematical concepts and be made aware of how these concepts are at work in their everyday lives. Lessons are taught in a sequential manner through a variety of methods to promote success. We use the Saxon Math Program which provides the use of manipulatives and other multisensory instructional tools.
Carden Academy's Pre-School Science Program
Students conduct the investigation with hands-on activities. Through observation, identification, and description, students easily grasp many basic and complex concepts. Learning about solutions, mixtures, acids, bases, and chemical reactions creates an environment of discovery and fun. They learn about the life of the bee, how seeds become flowers and they enjoy getting involved making "GOOP."
Carden Academy's Pre-School Foreign Language
Carden Academy teaches both French and Spanish. We teach Foreign Language through a variety of methods and techniques. Our foreign language teaches age-appropriate songs, recites cultural-based poems and uses everyday vocabulary. These methods help the children learn to enjoy a different language.
Carden Academy's Pre-School Fine Arts
Art and Music are a wonderful part of our well-rounded Curriculum. Students learn to appreciate life in a deeper way by exploring the work of famous artists. One of the children's favorite artists is Mary Cassatt.
Carden Academy helps students develop self-confidence and poise by performing in the Christmas and Spring programs. It is a wonderful time for the children to sing songs, recite poems, and perform in front of parents, family and friends. Program participation is another aspect used to broaden the the fine Academic Program that Carden Academy offers.
Dance, Tumble and Roll
Carden Academy is pleased to welcome The Webby Dance Company every Tuesday. Through beginning tap, ballet and basic rhythm children build memory and concentration while enhancing flexibility and coordination. The classes are taught by professional and loving teachers in a atmosphere that promotes self-confidence, creativity and physical fitness. Children will dance to great music while using pompoms, maracas, tambourines and more. So put on your dancing shoes and join us. If Dancing is not your thing we have Webby Dance Co. teaching Gymnastics on campus every Monday. Tip toe across the beam, roll down the cheese mat or cartwheel over the rainbow. With brightly colored equipment children learn a variety of gymnastic skills and stunts as they master the challenges put before them. Fitness attributes such as cardio respiratory fitness, muscular strength and endurance are key elements of this program. A mini Trampoline is also brought in from time to time.
Please feel free to speak with our Pre-School Director, Mrs. Dianne Stanford, concerning any of your questions or needs.
