CURRICULUM FOR VPK CLASSES
The WEE Learn Curriculum for Pre-K is a comprehensive curriculum plan for four-year-olds that contains ample teaching by using books, music, nature, and toys to illustrate Christian fundamentals. Age-appropriate learning activities are designed to lay a foundation for understanding God, Jesus, Bible, church, self, family, others, and the natural world. Our day will consist of learning centers and group activities as well as activities for pre-reading, pre-writing, phonics, and number skills. Each unit features two Bible stories, Bible memory verses, and planned activities. Snacks (each child brings their own), on-campus field trips, and playgrounds will be included in this block of time.
LUNCH AND SNACKS
Students enrolled in our VPK-only class M- F 8:00-11:00 will need a morning snack from home as they will be leaving before lunchtime. All other VPK students need to bring a morning snack and lunch from home or purchase a hot meal. Afternoon snacks for all students enrolled in our Wrap-Around programs until 6:00 p.m. will be given an afternoon snack provided by the school. A lunch charge can be paid on the day of an individual lunch purchase. Lunch charges are billed to prepaid accounts for Wrap-Around students only. An additional carton of milk or juice can be billed to their prepaid account. Please contact ECE for specific lunch pricing.
