Four year olds at South Lyon Co-op Preschool grow and learn both socially and academically through active learning with a developmentally appropriate, research-based approach. Adults are there to facilitate, encourage, and create the environment in which academics are embedded, as children experience many hands-on activities and literacy opportunities throughout the day, choosing, designing, and creating projects that they are interested in, all the while problem solving and building community. If this is your child’s first experience in a school setting he/she will find a nurturing and reassuring environment in which to experience independence and growing self-regulation.
