Preschool

24 mo - 3 yr 11 mo

Alphabet Aquarium by BrightPath’s Preschool Program is designed to align with the developmental milestones and curiosities of younger preschoolers through a variety of play-based activities centered around engaging themes. Throughout the day, children receive two nutritious snacks and a lunch served in a family-style setting, where teachers encourage self-serving, good table manners, and positive conversations. Preschoolers participate in two large group times each day to sing songs, listen to stories, play games, and discuss the classroom activities. The program promotes independence by allowing children to choose which interest areas they want to explore, including dramatic play, blocks and building, manipulatives and math, science, art, cozy corners, literacy, and music and movement. Outdoor playtime occurs twice daily, providing opportunities for physical development with equipment like climbers, trikes, and swings. After lunchtime, children enjoy a restful nap or quiet time before beginning their afternoon activities. The curriculum at BrightPath Preschool is designed around children’s interests, adapting classroom experiences to support their learning. Teachers scaffold learning based on what children already know and want to explore, using themed studies that range from seasons to living things. These themes come to life with hands-on activities, such as watching caterpillars turn into butterflies or baby chicks hatching in the classroom. Additionally, children can enroll in the literacy-focused "BP Read with Me" program to enhance their emergent reading and writing skills through small group sessions. Preschoolers also learn American Sign Language to improve communication and reinforce concepts. Our curriculum aligns with the Connecticut Early Learning and Development Standards, covering essential areas such as science, math, social studies, creative arts, and social-emotional development. Teachers regularly assess progress and host parent/teacher conferences three times a year to collaborate on each child’s growth and development goals.

Pre-K

4 yr - 4 yr 11 mo

Alphabet Aquarium by BrightPath’s Pre-K program prepares children for kindergarten through age-appropriate, play-based learning experiences that incorporate science, math, arts, and language. The curriculum encourages participation in teacher-led activities, managing transitions, and following routines. A key focus is on developing literacy skills, with dedicated literacy centers and engaging activities that promote letter recognition, fine motor skills, and emergent writing. Children explore topics in two-week-long studies, such as changing seasons, community helpers, and animal habitats, with lessons adapted to their interests. The program incorporates American Sign Language to enhance communication and reinforce learning concepts. Classrooms feature dynamic learning centers, including dramatic play, blocks, sensory tables, science, and literacy areas, allowing children to engage in hands-on activities and role-play based on the current theme. Outdoor learning and field trips, like visiting local farms, enrich lessons and help children connect with their community. Teachers encourage independence by letting children choose their activities and promoting social skills, language development, and problem-solving. Regular parent-teacher meetings provide opportunities to discuss development and set goals to support growth, ensuring a personalized and supportive learning experience for each child.

Bridge Classroom

Children in the Bridge classroom are strengthening their self-care skills, growing in their independence and enhancing the skills they need to be successful in a preschool classroom. The Bridge classroom is a purposeful year of preschool prep designed for children with birthdays later in the year or children who may need more time to strengthen self-care skills or social-emotional development. In this classroom, our Wonder of Learning™ education program supports children's independence as they continue to build skills necessary for handwriting and drawing with increased intentionality, learn foundational math concepts and build strong vocabularies.

Preschool Classroom

3 yr - 3 yr 11 mo

In our Preschool classroom, children start their journeys into a cooperative learning environment where they can discover interests and learn in a more structured setting. At The Goddard School®, we recognize that classrooms are made up of many unique children and teachers work to create engaging, innovative, play-based lessons with the interests and needs of every child in mind. Through the power of asking a question, your child will learn how to seek answers and advocate for themselves in the classroom. The Wonder of Learning™ curriculum takes your child's natural curiosity and encourages them to ask even more questions because asking questions fuels learning. When children want to know something, they learn faster and learning becomes an understanding that lasts a lifetime.
