Monday-Thursday, students will develop social-emotional, language, literacy, math and science skills for kindergarten readiness as they investigate the topic “Our Five Senses.” Hands-on activities will keep students curious and engaged as they discover more about themselves and explore Our Five Senses through a variety of multi-sensory experiences. Science experiments, read-alouds, games, and walking field trips are just some of the fun activities our preschoolers will participate in as they prepare for kindergarten.
Learning Activity Packets
ACPS will provide Pre-K families with a Learning Activity Packet towards the close of the school year to support continued learning over the summer.
The Learning Activity Packet will provide hands-on activity suggestions to do at home as a family. Activities will incorporate pre-academic and social-emotional skills in preparation for kindergarten.
Learning about “Our Five Senses” offers a meaningful way for young children to use early reading skills, math, the arts, and technology to investigate and represent their understanding of important concepts related to science, physical development, and social skills.
